Assigned to create a how-to
video
for his first film class, and still on his infamously stringent school
deadline, this little experiment was born. Tom admits to having a lot
of fun working on the animated segment for this project, it being his
first time compositing his drawings into pseudo-live environments. All
of the backgrounds are matte
paintings,
something Tom had no prior knowledge/experience
doing. It should be fairly obvious that at this point, Tom had never
narrated anything either, switching between his regular speaking voice
and a 60's narrator thing.
All of the camera movements were painstakingly keyframed to achieve a
low-budget, drone-y style. We really like how it came out.
What we aren't too keen on is the audio; borrowed, old microphones make for a tough sound mix.
