Animation film shoot

When I have animation classes with some spare time, I try to get them to make something that would be too complicated to do with only one or two people. Today we set up a camera pointed at glass which could have paper or other substances on it held upright, and behind the glass is a miniature wooden stage where claymation could be created. These areas are lit with dimmable lights, balanced to daylight, because they need to match both the colour and the intensity of the backdrop which isa large tv. Onto the screen of the tv is a live feed from a camera pointed towards black curtain and where another person is performing one frame at a time.
