When Reality Becomes Cartoon - Johnny Encore
Hello friends. Having reached my 100th post last week, I felt like I needed to upload some new content to Vimeo, and showcase a bit more of the cool work that I've been doing alongside pals Karl Soule, Kush Amerasinghe, and of course, Johnny Encore.
And as the title of this post suggests, I'm referring to Johnny's mid-autumn hit single, You're In My Heart and InDesign. If you haven't seen the video already, I think you're really going to enjoy this. For starters, it takes advantage of the new Cartoon effect in After Effects CS4. However, there's SO MUCH going on in this piece you really just have to experience it to believe it. Enjoy it here, in glorious HD with Stereo audio, courtesy of Vimeo...
You're In My Heart and InDesign by Johnny Encore from Jason Levine on Vimeo.
On the audio side, because of some 'difficulties' that Johnny was having with certain members of the Acrobats, I had to step in and wound up playing drums and Hammond organ for the piece. In Johnny's words, "The original take simply wasn't DIRRRTY enough. Make it so." And so, I did. Be sure to check out 'Short & Suite' on AdobeTV for details on how this was made, crunchy-sounding, cartoonified-brilliance and all.
Until next time,
Blog on.

That, is actually really cool! I love the part where the words fly around him like a tornado. Any chance for an MP3 version? xD
