01 The Concept.
My love for collage inspired this project. I was creating a collage project and hit a roadblock because I had a few ideas of where I wanted a certain cut-out to go, and once I stuck it, I couldn't move it. I got to thinking, what if I could take the physical pieces of paper and make them move through multiple different layouts?
When I was given the opportunity to create the visualizer for her name was four, the final song on the album TWO+, I was immediately reminded of this idea.
02 The Process.
I spent the first few weeks of this project going to old book stores and thrift shops, collecting old prints and magazines. I then cut out the pages that caught my eye and created digital copies using a scanner. Using photoshop, I cut and edited these images to be used in a collage.
I filmed the actions I wanted to animate and edited the footage in Adobe Premier. Using this footage I created a few rotoscoped frame-by-frame animations. These animations were drawn using procreate and edited in Adobe AfterEffects.
03 The Final Video.
The final composition was animated and edited using Adobe AfterEffects.
