Responsive: Dazed - Further Post Production

Now that the stop motion video was complete, I was able to help Molly and Katy with the remaining 3 videos. I can happily say that there wasn't much left to do, as they had been busy working on it whilst I was editing the stop motion.
Katy was working on the 'Crowd' video and Molly had taken the 'Dance' video, which left the 'Book' video, so I decided to take this and work on the first 4-5 seconds whilst I waited for the animated clips from Katy and Molly. Sticking to the theme of fun and 'wacky', I stuck to simple line work and patterns like the others had and I feel that I managed to replicate what the other two had created.

Once the others had finished, Molly took the the last of the 'Book' video and Katy worked on the description, title and statement for our submission. I began the process of post production once more to add in the floating patterns that Katy and Molly had designed and prepped earlier in the project. The idea was to have the GIFs masked out and floating in the background of the videos.

Making out the pattern
Adding the masks to the footage

It was a simple process of masking and key framing, which took no time at all and I had no difficulty with the process. I then attempted to add them to the footage, however, I wasn't too sure whether the floating blobs fit properly with the rest of the animation, so I asked the others what they thought. They seemed to really like it and didn't suggest that I remove them, so I decided to stick to it, as the others felt that it looked good and agreed to have the blobs in the final footage. 

Overall, I'm pleased with the final outcome and I feel that we are in a strong position to submit.
