2 Awesome Videos that Speak How I Feel About Dance

Found these videos while I was looking up another dance blog. And I just went on a binge of watching videos on their channel. I went on their "We Know The Feeling" playlist, these two resonated to me the most. I deeply admire the cinematography and the message they use through dance.

"When you're deep in the moment of dance... time just slips away."

2012 US Philippine Expo

I recently did some freelance work in putting together a really quick :30 second commercial.
While the client provided the footage and materials regarding the event,

I first started the process by storyboarding it so I go into the whole thing with a plan of attack and so I'm not aimlessly hoping that something good pops out of nowhere.

I then proceeded to create the assets I needed in Photoshop and Maya.

Then I put everything into After Effects and put everything in it's proper timing. From there, I animate all the assets needed and then spice up anything I feel needs some lovin.

The whole process only took about 9 hours.
