Music Suggestions (playlist)



Gif. now with words

So I tried adding words this time around. It feels a little fast. It's kinda hard to edit because photoshop is weird about video layers.

Now with rewind

It's coming along...

Another test

Decided to shoot again since the last one was too centered. This one is slightly better but I wish I was more to the left.

Edit: Fixed (sorta)

So i don't like talking much and I have a tendency to jumble up my words so I decided to make a gif set of trying to speak but the words can't come out.

Pipeline Project - Yokai Case Files

Idea
To create fake case files involving yokai using illustration and photomanipulation. Each case file will have a picture of the alleged yokai, a description of the yokai (known powers, abilities, etc), a picture of the incident or the scene of the crime, and a testimony from the victim and/or witness.

The idea can be presented with in the form of a tabbed scrapbook, or a blog diary (for easy online access).  Film can also be used to create interviews, and/or homevideo-esque footage for each case.

What the heck is a yokai?
Yokai are a group of supernatural creatures from Japanese Folklore. They come in all sorts of forms such as animals, beasts, ghosts, etc. Yokai.com and Obakemono are great resources for yokai information!


Examples

I did a quick sketch to illustrate what I imagined. (Sort of)


I think this picture does a better job of summing it up. (From the game Mystery Case Files)
