Lots of stuff wrong…but this was my first experiment using these effects and technique. Just practiced my first time with particles and still images in AE with this video. A little embarrassed though because my masking job missed a few spots and the cam is a little jumpy for my taste. Haven’t had the time to fix it up yet! Stills taken at 6MP with a pentax K-x.

Thanks to Maria Bowskill for the instructions she provided here: vimeo.com/10000274.  My goal is to be smooth like this on the next try: vimeo.com/1668653.

Music by Lasse Gjertsen.

The video is not jumpy on purpose, there was a problem with the rendering…but it kind of fits the music so I left it alone.  Recorded on my friend’s HF100.  HV30 from me coming soon.  The music was done in FruityLoops.
