Imagine Spot

 As I promised in my last post here is the "Imagine" sports spot I have been working on. This has probably been the most involved project for me to date. As you can see in my previous post, I had the opportunity to go to the Motion Picture Studio here in Provo for the shoot. That was a great experience. I gained a greater appreciation for the whole filming process. I also gained a greater appreciation for the post production process. I spent the last 3 weeks working with the footage that was shot to create the promo down below.
I keyed out the green screen and created the visual effects for this promo using After Effects and Maya.
Usually I work with footage that has already been color corrected but not this time. The task that took the longest for this spot was the 3D work in Maya. I created the whole back wall, curtains, bookcase and chair in maya. I used a spotlight in maya to project the football footage onto the wall and then rendered it out and composited it into the original footage with after effects.
I will say thank you to Micah for finishing the final edit before taking off for a couple of weeks. Also the sound engineers did a great job with the audio.
There are two videos below. The first is the final product. The second the the original edit without any graphics. It is basically where I started from. I have woven some of the final product in between to highlight the differences.There is no audio on the second video.

On a different note, today was my last day at BYU Broadcasting. It will be interesting to explore new avenues out there.
