Animation

In my project, I experimented with blending animation and reality by integrating animated graphics into real-world footage. I created the graphics using Canva and animated them through Adobe Premiere Pro, placing them within live-action scenes. This fusion of realism with cartoon elements allowed me to explore a surreal visual language that challenges conventional storytelling. By layering animated visuals over realistic environments, I aimed to create a playful yet thought-provoking experience. This approach gave me the freedom to exaggerate emotions, highlight symbolic ideas, and push the boundaries of how visual effects can interact with and transform ordinary filmed reality. Cubism was also aimed with the help of my graphic animation.

 Rembrandt Lighting  In this assignment we were taught different lighting angles like split, butterfly, rim, loop, rembrandt, side lighting and more, to result different feelings and tones in a photograph. Using rembrandt lighting we experimented and created a beautiful picture.  What is rembrandt lighting? Rembrandt lighting is a classic lighting technique often used in portrait photography and cinematography to create dramatic, moody, and dimensional images. Named after the Dutch painter Rembrandt, who often used this style in his paintings, the technique is defined by a triangle or diamond-shaped patch of light that appears under the subject’s eye on the shadowed side of the face. This effect is achieved by placing a single light source at approximately 45 degrees to one side of the subject and slightly above eye level, casting shadows that sculpt the face while leaving that small triangle of light. Rembrandt lighting is particularly flattering because it adds depth ...
