Taking the BP Oil Monster to the next dimension

Now that I'm getting more confident with using After Effects, I decided to produce a short semi-animated short using none other than my Deepwater Horizon illustration. 3D Layers are brilliant for 2.5D (next step, turning a Flash short into a 2.5D animatic) and enabling Motion Blur multiplies the render time by quite a bit (though it was worth the wait, it look way smoother now.) I also tried my hand at using Premiere Pro to add the audio, since After Effects added small pop's to the song in random places.

I also started a very short, slightly abstract animation yesterday evening; I illustrated the scenes in Flash and started to animate it in After Effects, I'll be working on it this weekend.
