Video Blog Post: The Garden Show

This 3 minute video was created for The Garden Corner as the first in a series of video blog posts. I created the intro in After Effects and edited the video in Adobe Premier.

By converting the video to a Flash Video, I was able to condense the 680MB file to just 14MB and still maintain high resolution.

I wanted to simulate flying over a family tree where people would be standing on their own name doing something they enjoy.

I created the family tree in Photoshop. Five individual movies were taken on a green screen and then imported into After Effects.

I started by creating a 2D image of an art gallery completely in Photoshop and then added the wooden frames and photos to make it seem that they are mounted off the wall by 4 inches.  I used perspective to distort those images.

The next scene was mostly done in Photoshop where I created a gallery wall of stucco and added the wooden frames and photos.  I captured an 8MM filmstrip and used After Effects to perform motion tracking.
