Still working

Last week I upload this blog with 2 videos of the FX that I made for my project SUM, Shape Ur Mind. From then I have been working on another effect. I only could work on one effect because I went to a festival in order to know what I can do with the business that some classmates and I are trying to start. Also I’m working on my demo reel to show it to some universities because I want to do a master on Motion Graphics.

This new effect took me more time than the others because I could not do a camera tracking for the movement of the head and I did all the movement frame by frame. I’m a little bit proud of the result. Every day I see the end of the project more close and I enjoy it to finish this project and obviously I enjoy while I’m doing it.

Here is the video of this new effect, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed as I did.

Remember that the voices are not final.
