Major project. The Twits.

I have had to change tact, and i am now adapting Roald Dahl's The Twits into a stop motion piece.
For those who don't know the story, its a short story about a married couple who are awful to each other and everyone/thing around them. They keep a family of monkey's in their garden that they train to stand on their heads all of the time. The main plot features around the twits and their monkeys, and the roly poly bird. The twits like to eat bird pie by catching birds on their glue smeared tree, the monkeys try and warn the birds and fail, then the roly poly bird turns up, and with his help they manage to save the birds, free themselves, and get revenge on the twits.

 So far i have managed to source all of my materials, sculpt nearly all of the characters, transcribe the story into script form, sew costumes for the characters, although the monkeys don't need costumes. I just have a few things left to do and I'm ready. I have worked out i will need to take a minimum of 2700 pictures. thats 90 pictures per hour spread over 30 hours, this is at the frame rate 3 pictures per sec, of course i can double these numbers if i need to, making it up to 6 fps.. This is still viable, and within time frame we have been given, it will just require strict timetabling.
