Collab Transition Effect


Collab Transition Effect

When making the transition I felt that the effective area wasn't being effected by the force the historian was putting on the scene. As such I made improvements to create a better effect.

To make the effect better I used replacement animation to  change the shape of the transition as the historian moved across the screen. I chose this method over vertex animation as this would be easier to track when used in moderation.


I used 4 shapes to create this effect having them cascade from one to another to create a smooth effect to end my scene and start the next one. After adding motion blur in after effects the swapping out wasn't noticeable and the effect was complete and successful.

He instead doesn't die and manages to make it to the relative safety of the space habitat where he stops himself from bleeding to death. Before the audience is told about marks plans on how to stay alive fighting the main problem he faces in the whole ...

Shadow: Scar is the shadow in the lion king sowing ill will and deception in the start of the movie to set up the events of the film. Herald:  Rafiki calls Simba to action and shows him a way to get in contact with his father. He helps the hero find there way and shows Simba the path when he's lost. The Threshold Guardian: I think the threshold guardians are the hyenas in the lion king. i think this is because they are present and the threat when Simba and Nala go into the darklands, crossing the threshold into defiance against Mufasa. Trickster: Timon as he plan's to use Simba for safety as he is a lion and can scare off other predators.  Mentor/father: Mufasa if Simba's father and mentor, a father figure who is teaching him to be king even after his death at the start of the movie. Allies: Timon, Pumba and Nala are the main all...
