I then designed and built the clouds for the backdrop. Although not having such a prominent role in the practical response, it's another example of water (gaseous water) that I'm investigating in the essay, and additionally will compliment the atmosphere of the calm and stormy sea scenes.
What Went Well
- The double layer of cardboard held the skewers in place so no slats were needed underneath
- The wood and cardboard was recycled so it didn't cost anything
- The glued skewer ends allowed for troughs to be created
- The build went how I imagined it to go and I'm confident I can make stop-motion waves
Criticism
- The pins and the packing peanuts didn't work as the skewers were too close together and were very fragile, however the skewers worked best on their own in the end
- The bin liner had creases in it that made it look unnatural as an ocean surface
- The glue on the ends of the skewers was still quite fragile
