1. "Note To Self"
3 years ago
My Masters of Digital Media major work. Although it is open for interpretation, the work represents the intertwining life cycle of a $10 bill and a male. The bill returns to the male at different stages of his life to show how he reacts to money. Although the character realises that there is more to life than money towards the end, the character is actually in an endless and inescapable cycle, as he shows his son (which really is himself) how to plant a money tree.

great work. can you tell us a little about the process of making this?
I basically started with filming live action footage - edited it - exported it at 12fps - then started tracing each frame by hand on a wacom tablet - then brought it back into after effects and started masking each frame with a photo of a piece of paper - that's then main part of the process - the rest was a mixture of drawing and compositing between photoshop and after effects
the music didn't really do it for me - no clear tune (although life isn't clear most of the time either)
Thanks for using some Canuckian toonage.
I can understand what an undertaking this was.
Wow. Keep it going.
I love how you made 2d
have emotion.
peace
You should post more videos. You must have more, especially from someone who's got a Masters in Digital Media. Where did you study? If you don't mind me asking?
Lotta hard work and disciplin, I imagine.
Only thing (and please no one get me wrong on that, it´s something that I felt) the steady paper texture kind of annoyed me a little bit. but that was about all. The rest is awesome. Nice nice work mate.
Cheers!
that rotoscoping must have taken so long...!!
excellent job.
The rotoscoping is really good!!!
I liked the idea of making it sort of a visual circle, it matches the title well. I also like the fact that every new thing comes out of another. For example: That watch when it keeps on rotating and that boy/man gets older. It just caught me.
Great!
