AE WORKS

After Effects is working again i figured out that for some strange reason the fist few frames would glitch the programme not letting me render my work or it would just crash after effects :/ Very bizzar but at least i have rendered what i have been creating :D

And here it is just like the other orb going across the scenery but this one has particles that will hit the floor and have a small beam coming form the back of it. All of the new effects have been done using the Trapcode plugins like Lux and Particular.

After Effects is being a right pain!! I decides to crash at the most unappreciated times :/ Don't get why but it doesn't like me today. I have been working on a effect like you see on skyline when the orbs come down through the clouds :D Its looking good but every time i start to get some were it crashes. I have a test of what the orbs will look like and how its going to emit stuff. But i come to render and nope it just crashes.

Looks like i may have to take a tiny 3 minuet break from it.

Hopefully i shall get the thing to render and put some more samples up for you all to go ooooooooo or ..............

The orb in Scenery

I learned how to create a light source in a still or video footage and make my light go through creating a realistic lighting effect.

I created this in After Effects using masks and some new toys like the vages filter and learning some new stuff for how to create depth of field in after effects this is the orb i created :D

AE Test 3

This time i have made it so the text explodes into dust :) Going to try making the dust glow as well :)


AE Test 2

Here is the other version ever so slightly different haha only the colour is abit more depleted the background has changed colours and there are small particles in the background flying past like small bits of glowing ash.



AE Test

Been messing around with after effects :) found some pretty awesome stuff you can do with it thanks to video copilot. I am now able to make a 3D environment with all 2d objects. I am able to simulate volumetric lighting and i can also make font look 3d.

O and i can create shadows haha. This is what i done with all the things i have learned it took me about 2 hours to do but that was me flicking between what does what and well hopefully i should be able to create these similar effects fairly quick in the near future.

Has been awhile


Am back to post bits and bobs, so these are my layout sheets. My favourite part of them is the colour spectrum. Yep a strange thing to like out of it all but its true.

I have also written my treatment and made a start on the amazingly fun powerpoint presentation.
