Project Description

This shot was produced as part of a student animation movie.
After my first attempt, I decided to make two versions of the Head-Up Display. One futuristic and modern and one that has a steampunk appeal, which would fit more with the look of the monocle of the character.

For this shot, I created the illustrations which I then animated. Furthermore, I was responsible for the finished look of the scene, which I edited completely in After Effects.
