Over the weekend I have been working on the animation intro of the paint ball fight. I have made a paint orb, I have collected enough images to build all my assets. Now I have just started. As well as categorizing my portfolio for my DVD. I ran into a small snag and I will have to rephotograph half of my new paintings. Since the exploding orb animation is out I have started on a new idea. A small stop motion paint video with a mask of my name. The main paint video is slowly coming but I am making progress.

here is a screen shot

Hello Jill, After Friday, I have been thinking about my critic of my plans for this semester for the aftereffects class Thursday. And I going to change it. But not by much. I going to still create the interview documentary about my myself and my work. But I going to remove the mockery from it. It will not be half ass joke. It will be serious. I will take myself serious my work serious and the interview serious. I will use this video and DVD as an actual advertisement for myself to advertise my abilities in after effects, painting, and portraiture. The interview video will go on my website that I have designed. My goals have changed slightly and I will show you my full schedule Tuesday. But here is the over all list: DVD movie menu, animated sequences, animated intro, animated short, documentary interview, painting video of my BFA, and animated credits at the end. Also I finally paid my deposit for this class so I will I like to check out a camera as soon as possible to get started. I'll continue to add more sample videos to my blog over the weekend.

These three videos are small demos I created to refresh myself on some of the effects of after effect. In each video I used different effects-- track matts, masks, 3d, camera, expressions, time remaps, and different strategies to create these projects. They also relate to final project: a DVD movie and branding advertisement of myself as an artist. All three of the videos are dummy versions of elements you would find in a DVD. The first and second video are ideas I thought about for an intro logo video using paint and ink splatters. The last was example of a movie menu for a dvd. It is based off my painting video I made of one of paintings, whites only.
