2016 Animated Inktober Butterflies WIP Film Footage

These were the experimental bits I made with my own video footage of my lanterns. Some video clips were in Fall 2016, and some clips were shot in Summer/Fall 2017. You can tell if you look for the antique teapot BEFORE I made it int a lantern, and AFTER I made it into a lantern.

The Cutesy Cartoonish Anthro Butterfly was made by my daughter, who doesn't want to be named here.

Yucky Mommy Kooties! XD

It was intended to be a part of my 2016 Film Final at UMASS Boston, but since no one knew how to help me animate 3D puppets in Adobe After Effects CC 2016, or if they did, they had petty reasons for not helping me like my being an Independent 3rd Party Voter and refused to vote for the status quo.

Also, the tutorials available online were all outdated and were from old versions of Adobe After Effects.

I finally finished my last Semester at UMASS Boston in December 2017, resolving to stick with my independent goals as an artist, animator, and filmmaker.

I've done nearly ALL of my small goals, AT THIS POINT, and am wrapping up those small bits.
