Introducing… The Enraptured Cranberry Jellyfish from Tokyo from dr woohoo on Vimeo.
If you have the bandwidth, watch the hi-res version – you’ll be able to see all of the subtle details. The HD version is now available on Vimeo – Woohoo!
This animation was shown in public for the first time at Flash on the Beach. Although I was only there for the first day, FOTB again sets the highest standard of excellence when it comes to creative conferences and I sincerely appreciate all of the support from John and everyone at FOTB. I also appreciate all of the people that showed up for my show-n-tell session – I hope it was relevant to their interests.
The making of “The Enraptured Cranberry Jellyfish from Tokyo” from dr woohoo on Vimeo.
This video includes a behind the scenes view of what went into the creation of the animation. Not included in this video is the Audio amplitude analysis which was done in After Effects via a SWF Palette, exported and applied to the camera, particles and jellyfish via code in Maya. Stay tuned and I’ll have a lot more info on Adobe SwitchBoard, PatchPanel and more soon.
[...] Dr Woohoo (blog.drwoohoo.com/, http://www.inthemod.com/ ) Dr Woohoo demonstrated something I’ve never seen before: mashing up CS3 applications with ‘ExtendScript’; which uses javascript for intercommunication between CS3 apps such as Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash. Calling methods on the DOMs of CS3 apps to do various tricks. Opening custom swfs as panels in Photoshop. Automating the creation of layers and painting in them etc. Crazy stuff. Did you know that you could run a script to paint frames in the video layer in Photoshop? I didn’t. Not sure what the true potential of this stuff is but interesting in any case. Also showed some eye candy such as ‘The Enraptured Cranberry Jellyfish from Tokyo‘. [...]
The talk you gave at Create Chaos was pretty jaw dropping at times. I’m just now getting into Air/Flex/ExtendScript, and see huge potential in how these apps can cross-communicate with each other.
I know I mentioned this before, but using “Nude” for the video was a stroke of genius.
Don’t get big ideas, now…
thank you rene - i sincerely appreciate it and i am even more excited by the fact that you’re getting into it. i’d love to see where you go with it and if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask.
