Uno de los trabajos más interesantes dentro del campo de los motion graphics es el desarrollo de imagen corporativa, ya que en él se pueden aunar todo tipo de disciplinas y técnicas: diseño gráfico, animación, 2D y 3D. Todo tiene cabida en este tipo de proyectos, con lo que el único límite será nuestra propia creatividad. Con este curso y mediante un trabajo eminentemente práctico, podremos conocer desde las bases de un programa como Adobe Illustrator hasta recursos tan avanzados como el módulo Mograph, dentro de Cinema 4D. Terminaremos en Adobe After Effects, de donde obtendremos una pieza animada y sonorizada que pueda estar a la altura de cualquier gran canal de televisión.

In 1995, James Cameron began work on a story that would, more than a decade later, evolve into Avatar, the blockbuster of 2009 and no less than the movie event of the decade. Opening to international critical acclaim (including nine Academy Award® nominations) and unprecedented box-office success, Avatar quickly, within a few short weeks, became the highest-grossing film on record. An epic for our times, this next-generation spectacle blends action, adventure, and romance with a timely message of ecological responsibility while using, and inventing, cutting-edge technologies to transport audiences to a lush, fully realized alien world.

No less epic, however, was the groundbreaking and exhaustive process of bringing the film to life. Early brainstorming sessions in Malibu jumpstarted a vast production effort that ultimately spanned several years and multiple continents.

The Making of Avatar reveals never-before-seen illustrations and photographs, with a text that charts the technical challenges, innovations, and discoveries that made the film's breakthroughs possible. Working in tandem, artists and technicians created new tools and processes to realize the film's vision, including those for performance capture, which allows the nuances of the actors' performances to be translated faithfully to their digital characters; a virtual camera system, which empowered Cameron to direct within a virtual world with unprecedented range, generate real-time composites, and blend live action and special effects more naturally and intuitively than ever before; and stereoscopic photography, which produced the most immersive 3-D experience to date. Here, in The Making of Avatar, is the behind-the-scenes celebration of this monumental undertaking, the official record of how Cameron, the actors, and the crew made a film, and made history.

Newton 3 brings realistic physics to After Effects, making your 2D composition layers act like solid objects that interact with each other – just like in the real world. It gives you many ways to control the properties of your objects, including type, density, friction, bounciness and velocity. You can also change world properties, like gravity. What’s more, Newton 3 allows you to create realistic joints between objects, so you can easily create complex motion. Once you complete your simulation, the animation is recreated in After Effects with standard keyframes, so you can adjust the timing however you choose. Easy, no?

Newton 3 can be tested for free ! The unregistered version is fully functional but export is restricted to 25 frames. Download it and try it !


3.0 (Current version) - Jun 6, 2018
****************************************************************************
* General Changes *
****************************************************************************

- Added animation module (animate almost every physical properties over time)
- Added 2 new joint types: Wheel (for vehicles, with suspension), and Blob
(deformable object)
- Added new body property "Export Contacts" to create a contact keyframe at
each contact when exporting simulation to AE (useful for syncing events)
- Added 2 buttons under the preview to automatically create either an infinite
floor or a static frame around comp bounds
- UI has been revamped to better match AE's interface. This includes the new
"scrubby slider" to rapidly edit property value by dragging the value itself
- Improved support of shape layers
- Changed registration system (we now use aescripts licensing framework)
- Changed loop mode: when it is activated, the simulation restarts and plays
when arriving at the end of the animation (which is controlled by the
EndFrame parameter in the Export panel)
- Changed EndFrame parameter: it now controls the simulation duration

- Added support for file paths (settings files) containing unicode strings
- Updated GUI library from Qt 5.6 to Qt 5.8

****************************************************************************
* Platform Specific Changes *
****************************************************************************

Mac OS X
--------
- Improved performances when user interacts with the scene (e.g., moving
bodies with the mouse is much more responsive compared to previous versions)

Windows
-------
- Improved installation system (better dependencies loading system, no
installer required)

PhotoMirage, a new product from software company Corel, transforms images into "mirages" by adding movement to elements, such as water or clouds. The software works in three steps, the company explains, only requiring the user to select the elements they want animated, isolate them from the rest of the image, then save the final product.

PhotoMirage does not require video footage (the way a cinemagraph does), instead animating a single static image. The software is designed to produce moving images "in minutes," Corel explains on its product website, enabling the user to choose the rate and direction of the movement using Motion Arrows. Plot Anchor Points are used to isolate images from movement, and a slider is used to manually adjust movement speeds.

!- THIS IS NOT PURCHASED -!

Since the source code is freely available from the author's GitHub repository, i built the addon from source so it should be pretty much 100% what you get by purchasing the addon, except from the demo/test scenes that are not included in the source.

I tested it in some scenes and nothing seems wrong.

INSTALLATION:
Open Blender 2.79
Open User Preferences
Go to Addon Tab
Install addon from file and select the zipped file you downloaded.
DONE!
