Lloyd Alvarez Teaches You Particle Ballet

Look a Little Familiar?

Oct 8th in News by Adam Everett Miller

Just had somebody share this with me and wanted to pass it on. Nando Costa, along with the team at Bent put together this piece for Scott. I find it very cool that you can find out how to create a similar effect by following the tutorial by Nicolas Plaire found here.

    Thanks, thanks everyone… Well, anyway I think that somebody like Nando Costa doesn’t need my tutorial to figure out how to do the “My Paper Mind” effect.
    His render is much cleaner than mine…

    it’s an original piece developed with after effects to plan the shots, but shot in TRUE stratacut. Each frame is aligned to the camera as a paper cutout, and shifted back into space.
