CRUDE

I've been trying to video a model I've made for sometime now. I find video difficult to comprehend in a practical sense. I've tried filming this imagined interior, but each time the quality is poor in places and distracting. I wonder if its the low light levels and the need for maximum depth of field that defy the video camera. The one I'm using isn't best suited for what i want it to perform.
I really want to use a digital SLR with a video facility, but in the meantime until I can afford it, I've tried some very crude stop frame with a digital SLR. I quite like the jerkiness of it and with some fiddling with filters it could be quite interesting.
