Motion Graphics Video Wall, split over 3 HD flat panel displays.

I've created this motion graphics piece through a series of scanned images, converted to B&W, composited as one PSD photoshop file which I've imported to Motion 3 as layers and 3D space. I've then split the layers, giving them more 'Z' space between them and resized to correct for the wide angle effect caused by the camera.

As the camera pans back through the layers you get a depth of field from items moving independently. The outer border motifs are on a separate 2D layer which are unaffected by the camera movement. A number of the items are cloned layers, so I've only had to edit a few motion masks then move the timings around of each clone to give more of a mixed up drawing effect. Gradient blends, line pass filters and colour treatments produce the final result.

Notes: Storyboard, design, edit and production using Apple Motion 3, Photoshop & Illustrator. Video wall 3932px x 720px, split into 3 HD videos using Apple Compressor. Sedna Presenter used to remotely schedule content and video wall playback.
