Client: Nick Campbell's Five Second Projects

Title: Mario!

Software Used: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe After Effects, Cinema 4D

Process: This is my second submission to Nick Campbell's Five Second Project. I made this piece in Photoshop, Cinema 4D and After Effects. A lot of work went into this little guy. I screen captured frames of Super Mario, redrew them pixel by pixel in Photoshop, then animated the beginning part in After Effects. I then took those Photoshop files, exported the paths to Cinema 4D, then rebuilt the scene in C4D. I rendered out the elements separately in C4D, composited them back together in AE, added Motion Blur, Color Corrected, added sound and boom...it was finally done. Like I said, lots of work, but more than worth it. I now have a cool piece for my reel and a 2D AND 3D Mario world to play with :-)
