Watercolor Animation

Here's a quick project I've been working on the last couple of days:


It's not done, but I thought that I'd post up something as it's been a little barren up here that last week or so. All of the objects on screen were painted with watercolor on paper, then sort of isolated in photoshop, and then arranged in aftereffects. In the initial composition, all the objects move from right to left in a linear motion. There was no curving in the camera motion either. The two things working to accomplish a turning point of view are the slight blurring at the edges and a warped lens effect that stretches everything as it nears either side of the frame.

So like I said, it isn't done. I got a little tired of it, but I know I can push it a lot more (or at least more in the couple of days that I still have before it needs to be submitted). I'll have a new, hopefully more fleshed out version of this on Wednesday posted up here.

Also: WWOOOOOOOO no more projects due this semester!! I can do WhAtEvEr I want for the rest of the week while everyone goes crazy over finals. Happy times.
