This video isn't stop motion (lots of small photos) but one long line of film (edited in places) which has been put into fast forward and slow motion in various places to achieve the same effect. I really like this and have actually already considered using this method in my video.

Ancillary tasks - magazine advert (and possibly CD cover)
As most acoustic songs have a 'summery feel' or lightness to them and tend to have quite light colours on their albums and album adverts, so I thought about experimenting with photography.
Quite a few artists star themselves on their album covers and in their adverts, so I thought about taking a few photos of my actor and seeing what I can do with them, based around my ancillary tasks. As the weather is getting nicer and it's getting warmer, I want to play around with lighting and the sun (eg, flare in photos) and warm effects in my pictures, of which I think the majority of my target audience would like (teenager aged 14+).
Before experimenting with sunny and warm weather, I took a photograph on a winter day where it was quite cold and grey.

I used a 'sepia' filter whilst taking the photo so it's almost black and white. It has a vintage feel to it which is often associated with the acoustic music culture.
(Likewise, so is the beach and coastal areas.)
