Stop motion testing

In today's lesson, we experimented with stop motion. As said in our initial ideas, we want to include a shot of the 'final girl's' arm, which is being cut and slit by the demon through possession. We got inspiration from this idea from 'Harry Potter', where his arm is taken over through stop-motion and FX as a word is carved into his arm. From this, we would avoid plagiarism by only carving a bizarre marking.
Today, we felt carving a cross would be ironic due to the contrast on religion through the possession - as well as combining well with the shot featuring a priest - so therefore we drew a black cross alongside blood with coloured markings
We achieved this through indicating a mark on Sophie's arm, taking a few shots on the camera, pausing it, adding another marking, taking a few shots, and so on. Here is the video to represent this:
