Here is my first animation using Reactor in 3DS Max. It was fun to animate with and I hope to use it more, along with the other things that can be done with Reactor. I did want the bulldozer to be moved with Reactor but I couldn’t get the timing right so settled with …
This animation was originally part of the recent Future Pro Wrestling Crowning Glory trailer, but due to some changes it didn’t fit with the rest of the trailer. I liked the animation and didn’t want to delete it as it was no longer needed, so I put my JEH Designs logo in there instead and added …
Here is the trailer for Future Pro Wrestling’s Crowning Glory event on May 12th at Wallington Hall. The trailer was fun to put together although I did have to rush some elements and I had a few render problems some of which I couldn’t fix, I also had to redesign some parts at the last minute, …
A short animation inspired by the marauders map from Harry Potter. Using Trapcode Echospace for the footprints although I think they could also have been animated with Particular. Also animated 3d layers for the unfolding map. Watch on Vimeo here.
Here are some experiments with Trapcode Mir, other plugins used are Trapcode Particular, Trapcode Form, Element 3D, and Optical Flares. Trapcode Mir is a fun plugin, I hope to use it just as much as the other Trapcode plugins. Watch on Vimeo here.
A tutorial for creating transitions with Element 3D in After Effects. The effect is based on a tutorial that Greyscalegorilla did for creating the Discovery Channel transition effect with Cinema 4D and After Effects. This tutorial uses Element 3D instead of Cinema 4D. Watch the tutorial here.
Based on Greyscalegorilla.com’s tutorial for creating the Discovery Channel rebrand cube transition effect, I wanted to see if I could create the effect in After Effects with Element 3D. In the end I had to model the cubes outside of After Effects but that was all. All the mattes, specular, and ambient occlusion was done with …
JEH Designs logo in chains. I modeled two chain links in 3ds max and used Element 3D to replicate them into a full chain that would go around the logo. The simple fence and padlock were also modeled in 3ds max and brought into Element 3D as OBJ files. Watch on Vimeo here.
A short and simple animation using Lights Camera Action as the starting point. I didn’t have an idea what the animation would be at the beginning. I started with the model of the directors chair and then added things as I went, using Lights Camera Action as something to animate too. Watch on Vimeo here.
This is a fun advert for a fake juice drink. I started with the idea of fruit flying into a can and then exploding, I then built the rest of the advert around that. I used Element 3D with the Fresh Foods pack as the custom sprite for Trapcode Particular on a custom path, which …
