The Antlers – “Two” (Work in Progress)
What’s up everyone, the doc is back! Lately I’ve been working on a few projects – one of which is helping some friends with a music video for this band, The Antlers, based out of Brooklyn. The idea for the video is to have the band crudely animated from construction paper cutouts while jamming out inside of a room. My task for this project is to animate bubbles… lots of bubbles. The bubbles animate out of each instrument in sync with the music and float up to the ceiling. As they fill the room, they start to float out of the window and into the city. I don’t know much more about the video except that I have to create bubbles… lots of bubbles. So far, the bubbles are all manually animated so that they sync up to the music. For some later shots, I’ll probably use Particular, a particle simulation plugin, but for now I need a little more control.
Anyway, this is one of the shots of the drummer. The plan is to animate each member separately throughout the entire song so they can just edit between different shots as needed.
The video should be done around the end of July, so keep an eye out for it.
