I’ve been using a ChatGPT sidekick to create expressions for After Effects, it’s amazingly powerful. I wouldn’t know how to do anything remotely like this or the all important ‘search term’ required to make something like this. Was an absolute doddle.

From previs to final render.

Some #c4d and #deepglow for an animation test. Followed by some bts in the thread.

Ha, just read a load of twitter commentary. People on there write about mj like they want to be friends with it.

Here is some BTS showing the simple rig.

Some more joysticks n sliders work. This time using just layers and masks in AE. I used a 3D head to get the parallax right.

Totally worth messing about to bring to life Dan Soder’s Macho Man impression.

Fraser Davidson @frazdav.bsky.social · 03/12/2024
Quite a range of movement available with enough forethought.

Here’s Jesse Ventura wriggling around in real time in After Effects.

Fraser Davidson @frazdav.bsky.social · 03/12/2024
And then why not a 3D head?… so here are the previs just grinding around each using a joystick.

Fraser Davidson @frazdav.bsky.social · 03/12/2024
But then, why not attach pre-rendered limbs also?

Fraser Davidson @frazdav.bsky.social · 03/12/2024
A while back I had an idea to use joysticks n sliders to animate prerendered 3D elements of a character. You can see the 2D limbs pinned to a 3D torso here.

Been playing with Spline make little interactive 3D scenes.

A far less charming 3D version.

Awesome 80s and 90s car liveries. Can you name them all?!

A close up of the action.

Here is the final piece! All cars rendered in after effects for infinite quick render permutations!

Fraser Davidson @frazdav.bsky.social · 01/12/2024
You can see how the car runs along and tangentially to a spline.

Started rendering a whole track in 3D, perhaps that could move a little too?

Fraser Davidson @frazdav.bsky.social · 01/12/2024
Added cars and tyre effects and smoke etc plus more cars!

Fraser Davidson @frazdav.bsky.social · 01/12/2024
I started making a piece a while back that controlled the rotation of a car ‘sprite’ on a track.

How niche is this place? Any fans of 3D printed, hand painted wrestling action figures 1987-1993? No? Though not.
