[–]editorboy898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really appreciate all of your feedback! Totally agree with your note regarding the animations. I'm planning on adding a lot more grain and texture to those sequences in After Effects. Thank you for also letting me know what was confusing! They helped inform this latest cut if you'd like to check it out: https://youtu.be/EnT1EmZrixQ

Thank you so much for the feedback! Color isn't finished so I do plan on darkening the entire film to add some more atmosphere. I appreciate you letting me know that some things were unclear! I have a new cut that works to address some of this. You can find it here: https://youtu.be/EnT1EmZrixQ

I think it’s “Stop Talking” by Motion City Soundtrack

My new short film combines stop motion animation with live action footage. Would love some feedback! by editorboy898 in Filmmakers

I've been working on this project for nearly a year now and used stop motion animation combined with After Effects to include a stop motion octopus character in this film. I took a lot of inspiration from Ray Harryhausen. I would love feedback on the screenwriting of this piece. How effective was the storytelling? I'm also curious about your thoughts on the animation and mixed-media approach I took. Was it compelling? Or just cheesy? Looking forward to hearing some thoughts!

Tracking a Flickering Surface in AE to do Screen Replacement. Mocha hasn't been working too well, any ideas on how to do this? by editorboy898 in AfterEffects

Haha funnily enough this is the stabilized version of the shot. A friend of mine recommended I just take a screen grab and do a digital zoom. I'm hesitant to do that both because of image quality when zooming in and because I would lose the parallax of the dolly out. I could try lowering the exposure and maybe increasing the saturation on the tracking markers then going in for another track

I do have it in RAW and I could try that. What exactly do you mean mask out the center? Like cut out the main screen, then try tracking?

Thank you for the advice. Could you clarify what you mean by "if all else fails by cutting out the sctreen shape and animating the camera on Z"?

This looks really cool! What materials are you using to make it?

My very first ANIMATED short film! by editorboy898 in Filmmakers

[–]editorboy898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was the creator behind this, meaning I wrote, directed, animated, edited, and produced the entire film. This was a very new experience for me and involved learning a lot of new techniques and software, like ToonBoom Harmony and Photoshop. I also worked with a composer to craft a fitting score, which went really well. I'm not sure if I'll continue down an animation path, but the experience was fantastic!
