Inspiration from paintings

Another painting that gave me inspiration is the painting of William-Adolphe Bouguereau,

"A Soul brought to Heaven 1878"

The clouds and the colours used in this painting inspired me the most.

For my animation i also got some inspiration from paintings made by different artists.

Here are some of which inspired me the most.


The following painting is named " Fiercely the red sun descending burned his way along the heavens" the artist is Thomas Moran.

This painting gave me inspiration for my 3d ocean which i created.

3D ocean

I created for my animation a 3D ocean in after effects. The ocean will be the beginning of my part in the animation.

I saw this animation and think its amazing, i love the colours and the sparks effects which are used in it,also i find the way the flower is growing really good. This video has been a big inspiration to me as i want to use spark effects and that type of coulours and lighting in my animation, also i want to animate some flowers. The animation is in the link below:

Here is a short first attempt for my 3d room.

As i said before i am also going to add in the room a butterfly which will try and find the way out, as on of the walls will explode in the end and heavens gates will be behind it....

This is a image i found on the internet and gave me an idea on how i would like my own to look
like.


Starting the animation


I have started creating my 3d room,i did that by creating a new solid layer and adding a color effect to it,then i duplicated it 5 times and named each one of them left,right, bottom..... and then i started putting the walls together so i could make my 3d room.



I ended up making it a dark color instead of white which i was planning to do in the beginning,as i am planning to add bright light effects and have a butterfly flying in the room, which will be trying to find its way out.

I am going to take an image of a butterfly and add it in photoshop and create 3 different layers,one for the body,one for the right wing and on for the left wing.

After that i am going to take the butterfly layers in after effects and start animating each part, so i can get the butterfly to start flying through the room.
