Behind the Fog

Behind the Fog
February 24, 2025

On Day 86 of daily meditation + painting, I started blending layers a bit more.

I painted the cloudy Depression layer, cut holes with exact-o knife, and painted a landscape brighter sunny day layer separately. I scanned the layers so there would be some depth to the paper - even slightly.

Then I composited them together in Adobe After Effects - which I’ve never used nor animated before! Tah-dah! 2.5D magic! It was quite easy to put it together by changing the position of the background layer - shifting x-position overtime.

And I didn’t know what the hecks is a Media Encoder lol

Enjoy!
