After effects

O.K. this video is proof of two things;

First, anything I want to achive for my graduate film can be done in After Effects.
And second, I have a hell of a way to go to get up to standard!

Screenplay

My friend Tom McCarthy has agreed to write the screenplay for my grad film based on my outline. We will continue to collaberate throughout the process but I'm so glad to have somebody who knows what they're doing to take charge of the script.

Tom has written a couple of short films, co-written a feature with his brother (Outcast) and is just finnishing his first solo feature screenplay.

He's given me some reading to help with the process, it's all pretty much cyberpunk;


Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson
Vurt by Jeff Noon
Strange Days
Videodrome

Moon, a film by Duncan Jones

Found these unbelievable images on stumble. Impossible wide angle HDR madness. Would love to have a film full of matte paintings like this, but how would you match the crazy lenses!!?
