self destructive

This was the second of two stop motion videos and much more of a spur of the moment thing. I had already scrapped two other ideas and was running out of time when I decided to shoot the walk up the stairs facing down, except when I would get to the top, I’d match the last frame at the bottom and do the staircase a couple more times to give the illusion it was higher than the building actually got and to sort of stress the audience out a little. The pantomiming at the ending was supposed to symbolize self destructive tenancies and how they can undermine our best intentions (but really I only decided that once I had an idea for the ending.)
