Don't Look Down - Pitchfork TV Bumper
Don’t Look Down is a live concert series on Pitchfork TV, featuring a band playing a selection of songs on a rooftop (the working title, “Roofies,” was unfortunately not used when the project went live). This bumper also doubled as my final project in Motion Graphics II at Parsons, which I figured was a fair deal considering I was an unpaid intern at Pitchfork at the time. I shot and animated every part of this piece; the great audio was provided by Jeff Curtin and Juan Pieczanski. The animated parts were incredibly tedious, a process that involved rotoscoping in Flash, printing out all of the frames, tracing them by hand on a light table, scanning them in, and then altering them in Photoshop. Apparently I had never heard of a Wacom tablet.
