Trine wanted a Title Graphic and Three photoshopped images.
Title Graphic
I sat down and looked up various titles that I thought would work and Trine said no to all of them, we then had a discussion to what Trine wanted, her wish was for the selfies to be "floating" whilst the camera moved forward through them in 3D space, This was something I was not too familiar with but I gave it several tries.
The biggest problem was getting all the selfies in line with each other, there is no tool built in with AE that will do that for me so after a bit of reseach I found a script that would do it, however when I tried to use it for the selfies it would take only a small amount of them and repeat them several times.
I then found another tool called Griddler, which suited my needs, the difficult part of this project was individually keyframing around 80 selfies so that there is a random look, I did look for expressions I could use but I could not get them to work in the way I wanted, therefore I took a few hours to individually move each selfie.
After this I sent a copy of the title to trine for her feed back, she informed me that she had found a template that we could use for the Title so we went with that instead.
Photoshopped Images
Since we wanted to replicate what artist Shahak Shapira did for his project Yolocaust as we were not allowed to use his images.
This mean I had to recreate his images, this was not too difficult compared to the title sequence, all i needed to do was to mask around the person and then place them over the archive images we purchased.
I then changed the saturation and the image tone to match the background images and make them look like they are more natural and actually in the picture rather than just shoved on top.
once I completed the images I sent them to the group chat and Trine, Gavin and George expressed their approval.
