Waterman's Nest

Can honestly say I'd never imagine myself doing anything like this for a project or in life really. So we're currently doing a film project in that we each receive a television show and have to create a title sequence for it, here's our show;

8.30 Waterman's Nest
Occasional series in which Dennis Waterman,
dressed as a blackbird,
attempts to build a giant nest in a gigantic concrete tree,
while Hywell Bennett clings to his back offering nothing but relentless criticism.
Music by Lionel Richie and Fuzzbox.

I'm currently working on this project with Reece Crowder and we decided to take a 90's "game show" feel using stop animation. These are a few (extremely) rough tests to see how things will come together. These look very bizarre, especially taken out of context.

Stumbled across Barbey's work as I was browsing the web, the reason I like it so much is because in a world filled with software like photoshop things like this are easy to do but I find a certain beauty and interest when finding out about the process involved in making these pieces, Barbey goes old school.

"The process of my montage starts with concept. It is then followed by the exposure and selection of the negatives. The design is then created by carefully choosing printing procedures as combination printing; sandwiching negatives together; thereby printing them simultaneously; pre-planned double exposure in the camera; the re-photographing of collaged photographs; and/or a combination of the above. I sometimes retouch and/or airbrush the collages before re-photographing them from above with a special contraption to hold the camera in place. I then make a master negative to make a limited edition of prints."  -Thomas Barbey
