Hot Box

The Image below that i created was inspired by the film "The Fountain", the way the VFX artist created the end sequence with just chemicals and filming them. I found that this had added a great look to the film and was interesting because it introduced me to a new technique that i had never seen before.

Interactive narrative finished

Below is the finished link of my final Interactive Narrative. I am quite happy how it came out since i changed my narrative allot from my last topdown design due to the reason that i hated parts of the story because it felt way too repetative. I think i have the right amount of narrative as well as combat.

OneShot

We were told that for this project we would all be placed into groups and create a 1:00 Min long OneShot film.

Fortunatly i was lucky enough to have alot of creative minds in my group, but i soon found out that having alot of strong minded, creative people in one group can be a nightmare. After alot of  "creative" spitballing we came up with a good idea that we all thought was intreaguing an stylish but it had to have a good exacution to work.

We decided to have a comical documentry styled film about paper birds swimming down this river.

here is the film we made using Adobe software, Soney Z1 with tripod and a iPhone recording device for the sound effects.

Group Pixilation






Pixar Pixilation

Here is a test that i wanted todo to see if it is at all possible to recreate pixars amazing animated lamp.



I think its not too bad, not bad at all for a first atempt but i really need to make the animations a bit smoother.

MY PIXILATION/STOPMOTION



Here is my  first attept at creating a pixilation focused around magic tricks. I want to see if i can perform basic magic tricks and give them a whole new look and feel with the powers of pixilmation. Since pixilmation was created and used for doing special effects back in the early day of film it would seem that this would be a good theme.

i need to correct some of the camera work and put a few more basic tricks in. I want it in colour and with a better soundtrack for it. im going to try and fix these issues in my next video.



Here is my finished video and im really liking the look and feel of it. i think i have hit the mark whith what i was aiming for but if i were todo it again, i would clean up some of the bad camera work and i would add a few new tricks not just using cards, maybe a rabbit out of a hat who knows !!!
