Hi, i mate of mine wants me to make a little music video for a song he wrote based around stop motion animation after seeing some war sequences ive done previously.

Rialto 48 hour 2015 - Breathless - YouTube (first 30 seconds)

The video wont have anything to do with war and i have looked at a few different options and have decided that 2D Cardboard animation will probably suit me and the song best.

I was just wondering if there was anyone out there who could give me a few tips or anything i might need to look out for while making it ?

The actual story of the video is pretty much set in stone and i have already story boarded most of it.
Im thinking it will be similar to the tank video where i will photograph most of it against a cardboard background and maybe a few elements against green screen then combine it all in after effects

So yea would be great if anyone had a few tips or could point me in the direction of some video tutorials that are around.

Thanks
