Okay, here's another trial and error with maya and AE. obviously, trapcode particular is being used, and OF also. For the blur, Frischluft out of focus did a pretty good job. For overall color look, magic bullet was useful enough to create the overall mood and feeling.There's one thing that could easily changed the whole mood and that's the color scheme. I was back and forth deciding which theme i should used, but different color made different impression.i could have rendered with various colors to see which one works, but again..it;s a matter of preference..and perhaps this would go for another direction, who knows..:D
And the award goes to...its probably because of many award ceremonies lately, so my theme now is music award opening, its pretty short..
I have no idea what my idea was, but it turns out not bad :D maybe just an excuse, the important part is to learn something..and based on the script for maya, its called "Duplicate Animation Array".
Pretty good stuff, so make sure you get it and have fun with it..:D
There's a cool free plugin for AE, it is Sinedot. It's very useful to create something organic flow or waveform, vectorscope kinda thing. I don't know what you guys call it, but it is very handy. I tried some settings to create backgrounds or graphics elements. But in this video, I put also trapcode particular elements, I just can't leave it alone..*sigh*..Well,Be sure to play with Sinedot..Cheerrss :D
Quite sometime ago, I found thisAbduzeedo Website. It was all because of my class project, looking for a new design. It was originally photoshop class. Then, I was wondering how it'd look like if it moves. Yep, this is as far i can go, for now.. hope can make it a little further, and better...Oh, the evolution stock footage was also used and alot of masking works..to get the color theme..I kinda like it..:D
Another experiment, this time i'm playing around with 3D stroke, it's very useful to create line streaks like this and oh, and my first attemp on 3D text using Zaxwerks Pro Animator. It was pretty neat and relatively fast comparing if you are going back and forth between AE and your 3D application. I'm still not used to it, since there's no really freedom in a sense that you pretty much have limitations in light, material, etc, but you can get descent result in no time.. try it for yourself..!!
See ya..:)
Recently, I have been playing with trapcode form. It was so fun that I created something like this and keep dragged on. I put the vector blur, makes the lines resembles the "vines", at least that what I thought :) But eventually, hey, maybe it's not the vines that I'm looking at, perhaps it's a neuron. Mmm...that's a start. First task, where the neuron's place could be? well, the easiest thing that I could think of was the "Brain". So, I put it inside the brain and gave the title, Beyond science.. I didn't even know what title it's supposed to be there :)I'm thinking to make something like this. Trapcode Form has many features, and the presets are always a good start.
So, for the past couple years, i promise to myself, why not making a reel. It becomes really important as i want to apply for a position. Usually, they are asking for it and it's exactly what it means for. Most of the times, you can let people know what you are capable of through your demo reel. The rule is simple, if they like it, you'll get hired, otherwise you have to find another openings.I have a simple idea about how to make a reel, so make sure you know what your style is, and who knows it will make a big difference.
