Collage Craziness

Hey everybody!
Today, I am posting my first attempt at a collage project. The Private Psychedelic Reel is a 3 min 30 sec piece that I created to comment on the lack of research into psychedelic substances since the late 1960's. The places Timothy Leary, Ram Dass, and Aldous Huxley behind one of the most prevalent symbols of psychadelic culture in our society, the Lava Lamp. Thanks for watching!

Split The Screen

Okie Dokie Folks,
Here is my split screen project. Its called Metal Mania: Color-Mix, I gave the project this name because it is a remix of a landscape montage I made in media 2 called Metal Mania. The project is a color mix because I used split screening to view old footage in a new color. The results are pretty interesting, enjoy!!

Spun

Hello Again Everyone,
As I stated before, this blog will be used to display projects that I am working on of all different types. I decided to put Spun up as my second post because it combines a little bit of work in a all of my interests these days. For one the source video that I animated for this video was of me spinning fire poi, arguably my favorite hobby at the moment as well as my passion. Secondly this video features animation in flash as well as work in after effects. Overall this video is Colby in a nutshell, 2 brightly glowing orbs that circle each other over and over creating beautiful patterns but never really going anywhere in the end. All of you can try to dissect that statement for what its worth but you'll probably just get confused so why not enjoy the brightly glowing orbs.
