For this individual video, I wanted to demonstrate my skills as a digital media designer. I used the double exposure effect to approach this goal. For example, when the text around the growing vines turns black, I show a video or photo that corresponds with the word. I believe this idea demonstrates my unique characteristics and technical skills.

Inspiration

The inspiration for this video came from True Detective trailer.

Process

I used green screen room to shoot thie video. The green screen made it easy to remove the background while editing.

After removing the background, I used masking and layer modes to make the double exposure effect.
