Motion Graphic

SEM02. B E T A. PROJECT#02
P R O J E C T :: Motion Graphic



This was my final project for this semester. Since it was a short semester, there was not many project we could do.


Anyhow, this time around we were assigned to design a mg based on cultural or traditional celebration theme. Therefore, I decided to do a mg on Tanabata, a traditional festival celebrated in Japan. However, my focus was solely on the story behind Tanabata.




Images used was taken from random sites. They did not belongs to me. Each belongs to their respective owner.


Below are some sketches of the character development for this assignment:
Jyuzo statue and Kengyu

Celestial magpie, sakura petals and bamboo tree

Orihime



These are some of the thumbnails sketches for the mg:




Last but not least, the concept board and the pitch board:



This project was really fun to work with despite the unforeseeable disaster. There was a lot of mistakes, but thats what happened when one had to re-do everything just in time before the presentation.

This was the first time I worked long hours with After Effects. I hoped I can improves myself better in the future!

Typography And Transition

SEM02. B E T A. PROJECT#01
P R O J E C T :: Typography And Transition



My first attempt ever at typography mg. Gosh! It's not as good as I hoped it would be. Heck! I'm just gonna have to do a better job next time!



Now this was my first assignment in the 2nd sem of BETA year.

It's a typo mg based on Tropic Thunder dialogue. We were allowed maximum of three types of transition other than the basics such as fade in/ out, ease in/ out.
No 3D stuff was allowed either.

I think, I'm beginning to fall in love with After Effects!
