Paranorman looks like a great motion picture for kids, parents, teens, and just people that appreciate a good film. This is a movie directed by Chris Butler and Sam Fell also the directors of Coraline (2005). This is more directed towards children but the work that went in to it makes it suitable for all ages.
Paranorman is what is called a stop-motion film. What that means is each scene is made up of hundreds of individual still shot photos. What they do have is very skilled artist come in and make a very small set. And they make figures of clay that are very detailed, you can almost not even tell. There is a scene in the movie where there is destruction in the town the characters live in that is about five minutes long. This scene took the film makers almost a week to make. They had to take a photograph, move the figures the slightest bit and then take another photo. The film makers had to do this hundreds of thousands of times. The whole movie took two and a half years to shoot and writing took sixteen years.
Personally I have not seen this movie yet but I'm looking forward to it. I already have a lot of respect for this movie because of all the work that has gone in to it. So if you guys are looking to see it, I would. And just think about how much work it was to put this together. Should be good, below is the link to the trailer. Thanks guys!

hello!
Hi. My name is Blaine Fairchild and I am the blogger on this blog. I am going to try and blog about cameras, new and old, film production, photography, and tips and tricks on most of the topics. This will probably be more of a informational blog so if you would like, check it frequently.
A little about me. I am 15 years old. I love any thing to do with cameras (especially old ones) and video. Personally I do a lot of skateboard videos. I have a sony VX 2100 for that. So i'm sure that topic will come up some times on this blog. I also love to use film cameras. I have a few of those that I use a lot. so I will talk about film and digital cameras. But most likely more about video, and film production. so if you think you would like any of this please visit frequently and give input and bring up topics. Thank you!
