Super Powers
Each member of the class will be responsible for illustrating a different superhero power using After Effects. The example should have a plot set up...a reason for the superhero power to be used. It can be a simple set up but there must be one. For example:
This is a fairly long example but you get the idea. Your video can be as short as 20 seconds if you set up the situation, take a good variety of shots and spend time on your effect. There are many types of superhero effects possible with After Effects including: lightning, fire, cloaking, heat vision, stormy eyes, cloning, teleportation, jumping, shielding, and many others. Here are some examples:
You can search online for tutorials that will teach you how to do most of these effects. Be sure to watch an entire tutorial before going out to shoot so that you know what techniques to use and some possible pitfalls.
