'The Corridor' - Adobe After Effects final year project
'A video created with Adobe After Effects to explore its effects, compositing and 3D capabilities' - Dissertation project for Media Technology at Oxford Brookes University.
All visual content is original with PS comps made from personal photographs & images from CGTextures.com. Narrative poem also original. Music by LFO - Moistly.
Whole build took around 3.5 months and was a steep learning curve having never used AE before.
Initial inspiration came from Andrew Kramers (www.videocopilot.net) '3D Room' tutorial which was heavily expanded upon for this project. The 3D ocean tutorial was also useful and was again expanded upon in the final scene.
Rendering was a nightmare; the HD PNG sequence taking 8 hours, the Uncompressed PAL DV version around 7.
Was pretty chuffed with the end result and it was a lot of fun to make!
Please share your thoughts, criticisms & ideas as I wish to make more vids...it all helps :)
- Enjoy!
