Title: Paranoia
Semester/Year: Spring 2022
Software: After Effects
I chose the word ”Paranoia” for this assignment. I chose the colors to be primarily black and white to create my desired effect, which is to be uncomfortable and annoyed as someone feels when under that emotion. I used multiple elements and overloaded my timeline to distract my audience’s eyes and try to replicate what a person feels when they are paranoid. The most challenging thing for me with this project was to animate the arms of the monsters. For this, I had to create my own images in illustrator and separate them into different layers so that later I could move the rotation of the arm and body of the monsters in after effects. This was a good exercise, and I would like to repeat it again in the future.
