One More Short Animation For A Houston Contest

Steve K

After "Space Games" (done in Carrara) was submitted (link in a Topic below), I had a week or so before the deadline, so I tried something a little out of my normal (Carrara) mode. Its done mostly with FX from Particle Illusion and Digital Juice's "Compositor's Toolkit". There is a short Carrara sequence at the end, but even that is mostly Particle Illusion overlaid. Its for Houston's Aurora Picture Show "Extremely Shorts" contest, in the experimental genre (three minutes max length).

Thanks, Ivy. Yes, that one effect is clearly based on games like "Asteroids", its from Particle Illusion and is one of several even titled "Vector (something)", referring to vector graphics. I really like Particle Illusion, with effects like that are almost a whole scene/cut.
