Overview:
Create a visual effect art piece to present a deeper meaning of "The Laday, Or The Tiger?".
Problem:
The video requirement is 8K in 6 giant screens and the length is 5 minutes and 30 seconds. we will need to shoot our 4K raw footage for post-production. We will have to use shoot the footage about ink in a water tank. Although we are working as a team of 5, most of my groupmate were not confident with Adobe After Effects.
Solutions:
As the size of our video is too big, for just one 4K raw footage with 10 seconds already over 1 GB, it is almost impossible to do it in real-time on a desktop. Fortunately, I came up with a method that works with downsized videos, when we are ready to output we can just replace the link with high-quality video. The next challenge will be my group member's incapability with software, I have nothing but to teach them while we were working together.
My idea is to use the ink in water effect to create a kaleidoscope and merge it with our actors' eyes. This represents each of the character's mental activities and how they are affecting each other's decisions.
