Photo + Video Trick from Sonya Paclob on Vimeo.

Developed in After Effects class with Sam Girton of Spring 2012 at Ohio University. We had to come up with a conceptual ideas of a story with a mix of After Effect skills.

Photo + Video Trick was a concept I developed a few years ago by using my small compact Canon camera to capture the essence of my friends in everyday life. They believed I was capturing a photograph, but it reality I was capturing video. A video portrait you might call it. I was able to complete my package with the use of camera movement in After Effects and develop a movable logo.

Awesome. I found an amzing feature on sqaure space where I could do slide show. Excuse me for the website constraction. Things are changing. 

The preparations for the baby is unfolding at the household of Darrin and Cristine. The arrival of Cristine's father, Danny, and mother, Jemima, has arrived from Maryland barring bins of gifts from family and friends. The anticipation for the baby girl is mounting and the child's name has yet to be revealed until the birth. 

Jemima, mother of Cristine, goes to her knees and starts to talk to her granddaughter, "Hello! It has been awhile. I can't wait to see you!" said Jemima.

Alphabet cards are placed above the crib. The name of the baby girl will be reveal when she is born.  

Darrin and Danny, father of Cristine, carry bins of clothing and gifts from family and friends from home to the living room. 

The three generations are a moment of touch. Cristine and Jemima place their hands the belly together to feel the unborn child move.
