Immersive Video – 2025
This animation was completed for a Motion Design project in which I had to create a video formatted to be shown in the Buffalo State planetarium. The video had to be completed using a fisheye lens setting in Blender and in 1:1 format. I decided to create a scene in which a curious great white shark is investigating the camera under the ocean surface while boats and other ocean life pass by above.
I completed all art, animation, editing, and sound mixing using Blender, After Effects, and Premiere Pro. All sound effects are from Pixabay.
I sculpted the shark model in Blender by continuously bisecting a plane and shaping it to fit the image of a reference drawing I had completed for a previous project. Later, I created simple boat and dolphin models via Blender and Illustrator.
