Adobe After Effects

Harry Potter Movie Effect

I created the movie effect from an original video. For this effect, I first needed to color correct the scene to give it a bluish tint. I then added the wand effects (extra glow and a rainbow strobe) and trapped them to follow the movement of the pen-light.

Wipe Effect

I created this wipe effect in Adobe After Effects using the Red Giant plug-in Trapcode Particular. I started with the images for the opening and closing scenes on separate layers. The wipe effect was created using 3 separate images transformed with the plug-in's special lighting effects.

Puppet Animation

I created this animation from the jpeg image below by using the puppet tool in Adobe After Effects. Music by the Colorado band:"Rise Against", Album:"Siren Song of the Counter Culture"; Song: "Swing Life Away"

3D Effect

I created the 3D effects using Adobe After Effects, and the Red Giant plug-in Trapcode Particular. This plug-in gives the random scatter you see of the trees and the falling snow. The 3D text was created in Adobe Photoshop.

Carousel

The web pages represented in the carousel were all done in After Effects. Although, I can create a carousel using javascript, Adobes After Effects provides the ability to add shadows and depth of field.
