‘Mass’ is a short film showing the world an insight into Kheperism, a fictitious and newly rediscovered religious group. The project was my final film created in my university career, spreading into a new media I have never concentrated on: live action. The password for this animation is: 'Homebase'. The film has been showcased at UCA Canterbury for the graduation show, alongside a religious stand to promote the film.
To create the film, I used various techniques I have learnt over the years of studying:
- Hand-drawn animation
- Tracking in After Effects
- Blurring of Faces
- Sound Effects
- VHS styling
- Green Screening
and more...
The film required a lot of planning, consisting of multiple tests, animatics and more. Everything created was based on feedback and research.
For more on how I developed the film, I have provided a link to two of my blog posts, going more in depth on the processes of Mass.
