Comments:
I was asked to make an opening video for Sakura-Con to be shown at the opening Ceremonies. As I wanted to make something upbeat and fun, the video is fast paced and features a LOT of Photos from the con integrated with various anime...
This video took over 50+ hours of work and used After Effects Quite heavily. I wanted to mix anime and live Photo footage together to give the feel of the theme of how anime and the fans is related The Photo pan Sequence at the beginning took a lot of work in After Effects but turned out quite cool...
I got the zoom in on the Seattle Convention Center seen at the beginning from Google Earth. During the Opening ceremonies, it got a great reaction and people seemed to really love it... I even got an official request from the Japanese Embassy representative there for a Copy!
