Summertime - Billie Holiday from Amos Mulder on Vimeo.

This is all cut-out paper for a student project, no CG! A great video for a Friday start to a summer holiday weekend!

"We made this animation without a lot of animation knowledge, simply moving pieces of paper around frame by frame. We only used the computer for capturing the frames and for a little colorgrading."

Visually, some interesting onscreen windows that duplicate over and over with Celery Man dancing. Also, Paul Rudd is the man of my dreams, especially in that shimmery suit. Ha.

A really impressive piece produced and directed by Juliet Zulu for a recent AEPDX meeting (After Effects user group in Portland, Oregon). It was filmed on a Canon 5D Mark 11 and 1D Mark 1V. AEPDX's mission is "to give visual and motion graphics effects artists in Portland a platform for communication, education and collaboration. They give some love to our good friends at Red Giant Software too. Nice job tracking those titles.
