My final

So, basically... last semester, I made a film called "Sweet Dreams" which has since been renamed. Went through loads of production troubles... possibly the worst thing I've ever made. I suck.

Anyways, it's not done yet. I've been going pretty crazy on it because my actors were all f***ing amazing and I felt that the film didn't do them justice. The only issue I had with the film was that it was not representative of the performances I got from them. I pretty much had one of the other film groups from the class help me out and they all thought my actors were sick on set, but during the "final" product, it was like "What the hell is this?"

My actors agreed... the best takes weren't chosen.

So, I am in the process of re-editing and finishing the film. I got a game developer friend to help me with some 3-d monstering... and it's coming out well. So, I think I'll try to make it my final project.

Pretty much, what I'm going to do is ram the footage through photoshop. Draw things frame by frame aka rotoscope it all. Run it through another program... throw in my 3-d monster... then run it through after effects to add color and touch-ups/effects. OH, and finally... sound mix with a friend who will probably do it for free.

So yeah, haven't been sleeping much.

(I'm also composing it with another friend of mine... my brain hurts.)

tracking assignment


bouncing head from Joe Choe on Vimeo.

This honestly made me laugh my butt off when it was done.

I wanted to use Ben's head.... but I couldn't find a clean picture using my stalkerish stalking methods by searching names on google.

So, I settled for the next best thing.

This was a lot more complicated than I thought it would be. Yet, I'm happy with it... should've made the head cleaner and made it done more complex movements since it's possible because it's attached to a null. But oh well...

btw, this is what I was referencing by my last project and america's best dance crew.

(vimeo will probably take this down eventually).
