Study Task 2 - Bless you

Bless You - David Barlow-Krelina

I stumbled upon this animation through an article, outlining David Barlow-Krelina's latest work Caterpillarplasty. Although it did interest me, it didn't catch my eye quite like his previous work Bless You.

I really liked the experimental vibe of it, the art style and ultimately the simple concept of a sneeze.
This made me look further into fish eye, and try to get a 2d look with 3d assets.

I recreated the digital fish eye effect in after effects, by applying the CC Bulge effect on a 2d animation in After Effects;

This however, wasn't very effective since the source footage was 2d. I should attempt to try this in 3D now but alas, time is a cruel master.

This "experiment" made me consider in specialising in compositing, especially in the context of compositing 3d and 2d assets together
