The Fell


Redux of my Bumper Project. As you can see, I went in a radically different art direction, but I tried to keep the spirit of the original intact. I’d just gotten my Canon T1i and tried out the movie mode. By the by, if you have it, never film in 720, as it looks horrendous.



No Mo Mo Graph.

That’s the culmination of Motion Graphics Project, and officially my last motion graphics project at Full Sail University -at least for a grade. We were flown out to NYC to shoot and got back the following day. Just kidding. The only actual shot video is of the cast, which includes Mike Bennett, Wes Kandel, Mark Koenov, Ashley Nieves, and Ed Senf. The rest is made of photos and visual trickery.



If There Were Music Still On TV.

Up there is the first of two assignments for Motion Graphics Project at Full Sail. We were to create and brand a broadcast graphics package for a fictitious channel/TV show. I came up with a music channel- mainly beacuse I think it allowed the most freedom- called MAV. That’s short for maverick; it has no affiliation with the senator from Arizona and means to reflect that the station would play videos for indie music. I went for a very 80s eye candy feel with this, and it was my first official foray into Cinema 4D. In order, you see a 10-second bumper, an animated transition into a loopable background with a bug overlaid, another form of a transition, a lowerthird title bar, and finally, the opener for the show. Music for the bumper and video is “My Girls” by Animal Collective, whereas the opener is “Onyx” by Cold Storage, from the Wipeout Pure soundtrack. And yes, that is indeed the Feisar.

EDIT: Here’s an updated version of the opener.
