*note: the sewing thread for the last shot will be animated in 2D

\\\Analog Overlays\\\

I made some overlays (with the help of John's awesome videographer skillz) using analog materials (ink, soap, water, acetate, etc.). These were shot in HD at 60fps and will be used as a composited overlay over my 3d animation or sets for magical or dystopic effects...

A Midwestern Mess...

"The City was once an industrial metropolis, filled with smoke-belching factories amidst the hive of working drones. It was a place that grew overnight while the hard workers lost their souls to it in pursuit of wealth, devoid of good taste and individuality. It was an ugly, frightning place even in it's glittering heyday. But, once the hodgepodge of industry began to shut down, the optimism shut down with it. It became a rusted reservation for the poor and broken, a place of gray skies and crumbling steel mills in the midst of 'anywhere'. "

This is where the main character lives. It's technically three sets in one, both the house and factory have a finished interior room (similar to a dollhouse) for additional shooting.
