Me and my team mates Yuan and Shirley, continued to bring our story board we came up with last week to AR world using Adobe Aero, After Effects,Procreate,Photoshop and Maya. We started from drawing our main character "1023" in Procreate with different layers, then brought the layers to Photoshop for further manipulation, and then brought to After Effects for 2D animation, finally imported to Aero as image sequence and edited the whole story in Aero. The spider was created in Maya, and imported to Aero as obj.file.
The whole story was eventually divided into 3 parts that were primarily animated in After Effects. The First Part starts with our main character"1023", a seemingly innocent kid with a net, running around not catching butterflies but instead "data" from the air. (A metaphor of how our data were secretly collected by tech companies)
The second part will be triggered with a tap in Adobe Aero, and when "1023" finishes catching, he starts to run further away, luring us to follow.
The third part starts as we follow him close enough, a 10cm proximity will be trigged in Aero, and then we see the true evil "1023" dumping the data, and at the same time, the spider we imported and manipulated in Maya appears(metaphor of the true controller of our data). The truth is that "1023" is not an innocent kid, but a puppet of the spider, he is just hiding underneath the cute appearance.
