NEW VIDEO: Liquid Lava Energy Sphere

Just another experiment with Trapcode Form and Particular within After Effects.

NEW VIDEOx2: AUDIO ANIMATIONS 3+4

Third go at the audio waveform animation. This time we created spiral loops with Trapcode Form and set the particles so they vibrate in response to the frequency of the music. I also setup a camera and had that travel through the particle field in 3D space. This was a great opportunity to experiment with Trapcode Form which will surely become a more prominent plug-in for future effects.



Forth attempt at an Audio Waveform Animation. Like last time using Trapcode Form but this time a more subtle effect. Way easier animation to make.

Music in the video was recorded and performed by the talented and beautiful Emily Bjelica. You can check out her amazing music tracks here: https://www.facebook.com/ebjelica?sk=app_178091127385

My first ripper

I found this guy's video the other day. He ripped my video of my harry potter breakdown and added his own effects. I found this extremely hilarious because its terrible. I could file for copyright infringement but eh its not worth it. I guess I'm just going to have to get used to it.

NEW VIDEO: Procedural Crumble

Just a little something that I made in my college Chemistry class lecture about 2 weeks ago. I was bored so I made this on my laptop. Thought it was decent enough for youtube so I uploaded it. Nothing too special..

New Task: Recreating Super 8 Lens Flares

One of my favorite movies just came out on DVD and BLU-Ray, Super 8. Fantastic movie I recommend it to everyone. The director JJ Abrams uses lens flares throughout the entire movie sorta as like his filmmaker signature, I'm going to go through the entire movie and remake all the lens flares within After Effects. Such lens flares are from the following sequences:

Once I go through the entire movie maybe I'll think about selling them. Nobody has done anything like this so maybe it would be towards my advantage to make lens flares and sell them to the public. I don't know yet but I do know that for the next couple of months this what I'm going to be doing.
