This film is made by my MArch colleague in Nic's group. Really amazing that everything is 2.5D. And it is the first time I did the sound recording for the script. Enjoy.

Golfer in the Bunker - Moving Camera

This is a moving camera version of the golfer, the camera is following the object, zoom in, rotate to capture the spatial quality of this landscape. The notation depicts the position of the moving points that are then become the location of the swirl object.

Mixing the footage of the original recording with the motion tracker in the After effect that pick up the position of the body to create another speed of interference that swirls in between the motion landscapes.

When the Golfer becomes the Dancer

I manage to mix the golf club with the dance motion, which combines the light, reflections, surfaces, particles, distorted surroundings, trails all in the bunker. It's only 400 frames, still 800 needs to be render out.

I try to construct the idea of the golfer in the bunker to get the traces of light, these are setup according to the model of the golf clubs, the surfaces that are bouncing the light coming from the embrasure and reflected around the bunker as interior. And the points that reveals the vectors on the swing motion. The distorted surroundings floating on the surface are also bring back into play. But the render time is a killer if I want to make it into animation. 12mins per frame with 300 frames as total. It will take more than 60hrs...

Test_Floating Landscape

This is testing of the idea of the surroundings floating on the surface, it is setup by using reflecting material that is picking up the lights and textures of the bunker. And the different speed of the floating is introduced as a landscape. But...it seems just a cool screen saver.
