Gregor's World

Having so much fun playing with effects in Adobe After Effects; there are so many! For a while I definitely got lost in all the cool and strange built-in animations to place on objects, but I have returned somewhat to a place of sanity.

I've been watching some of Monty Python's Flying Circus lately and I have no doubt that Terry Gilliam's animations and the general tone of the show have continued to inform my work. Of course, it does help that Kafka's stories reside somewhat in that realm of the strange and unidentifiable, and the medium I have selected of a sort of digital cut paper surely contributes as well.

For a while I had stalled on this project. My excitement dwindled as my original idea faded and I became less excited about the software. Now that I have re-established a direction, I am in a much better place and in fact almost finished!
