This is where “DAY 039 – Fire + Mask Transform” will be. It was an exercise in After Effects involving more advanced techniques with Trapcode Form and Trapcode Particular from Red Giant Software. Many more details to follow, as well as the project files.
Trying to alleviate the daily grind and intensity of working to cram as much into my pea brain as possible, I worked from one of those elusive thousands of tutorials I’ve seen along the way, and created a project, from scratch, using Expressions in After Effects as well as Trapcode Particular. My “DAY 036 – Artaud Poem Excerpt” is the result. And, as I posted on Vimeo, today’s effort is a personal piece: It’s a comment on a largely unrequited […]

Today’s effort was more work with Adobe Illustrator files in After Effects. I simply took the cliche 2D image of a bird silhouette and animated the wings in After Effects. If it weren’t for the zillion or so tutorials on this, I never would have been able to make it happen, but, my research is your tutorial. “DAY 019 – After Effects Bird Animation” is the result and the tutorial will be posted here soon.
