FPFP Final Project
You will begin to know a little better the work of Joseba Elorza and the path he has taken until reaching the animation, as well as the influences that have marked his graphic style.
Then it will show you where to look for the raw material of your creations: photos, photos and more photos. You will discover some of the websites that you use in your projects to download quality images, free and free; and you will also see where to find sound and music effects for your projects.
When you have selected the material you will use in your animated collage, you will learn how to organize it, create a storyboard and import your images into the workspace in After Effects.
From here, you will learn the basics of animation in After Effects to make your collage come alive.
Finally, you will learn to export your project, choosing the most suitable codecs and formats so that your creation looks the best way, be it on YouTube, Vimeo or even in GIF format to upload to social networks.

What is this course's project?
Using only photographs, you will create an animated collage with a 3D aspect of surrealist landscapes, whose beginning and end will connect imperceptibly to the viewer, creating an infinite loop in GIF format for social networks.

Reviews

A course by Joseba Elorza
Joseba Elorza studied to become a sound technician and after a couple of fruitful years in art school, MiraRuido was born. This original project arose as a result of the time that Elorza used to spend the morning wrapped in sound on a radio station and the long nights working on his collages; little by little, the visual part gained the audio and ended up becoming their way of life.
His illustrations have been seen in publications such as Esquire, New Scientist or the Wall Street Journal, and he has made animations for clients such as National Geographic or Amazon and video clips for groups such as Green Day and Berri Txarrak among others.

Great course !
cajondelsastre
Mira que he hecho cursos, de todo y de todos los precios (y a veces, cuanto más caros, peor).
Y este me parece la bomba! Super bien explicado, ameno, con inspiraciones, recursos, tips, short-cuts...
Yo ya controlaba Photoshop y el mundo collage, y aún así he aprendido! De After Effects ni idea, y Joseba lo explica muy clarito.
Es mi primer curso en Domestika y ahora tengo miedo por mi cartera...
Gracias Joseba Elorza!
