Myself and two co-workers are trying to get some video and motion graphics projects going for fun and learning and to cram into our future reels. So we are attempting to team up and pool our creativity and talents in order to create such things. These will be our “After School Specials“.

This lil motion piece was just something I whipped up after seeing a trailer for The Brothers Bloom. The movie looks mildy amusing, but no where near as good as the directors (Rian Johnson) first film Brick. But I digress… I enjoyed the treatment of some of the word bits in the trailer and decided to try and recreate them.
And I have…
This was also an excuse for me to try out a new WordPress FLV player plug-in FLV Embed, which should make putting up FLV’s easier AND work in IE, which my previous technique did not.

I made this motion flyer for my friends new night at a bar in San Francisco. I was going to put it on Vimeo but I think it may violate their terms because it is an advertisement. Maybe I’ll slap it up there after the night is over… then it is just “retro” video art.

The night is the SemiSexual Record Label Night, at 222 Hyde, in San Francisco.

DJ’s: mr. projectile - comma - pauley unsaturated - shiny diamonds.

august 7th - 2008 - $5 - 9:30pm to 2am

Just messing with my logo and trying out some things gleaned from a few Video Copilot tutorials.
I also put it up on Vimeo but I wasn’t happy with the quality, so I put up my own flash version here.

Apparently this was done using manly displacement maps in After Effects. I’m not quite sure exactly how it was done, but it is enough of a place to start experimenting and see what I can come up with. I have found most cool unique things in AE from just tweaks and playing. If I come up with anything, I’ll post it!

I recently posted my first video to Vimeo. It’s a mix of some of my VJ clips, set to music… specifically the Ozric Tentacles, who are big influence on my visual style, via their music, light show and album covers. The video isn’t quite finished, but I decided it was time to get some stuff up online for people to watch. Enjoy!

Oh, and everything in the vid was made in After Effects, although it was edited together in Premiere.
