In collaboration with @MichaelGhelfiStudios, I created my first ever animated piece from scratch. The photo manipulation part was done in Adobe Photoshop and the final animation in After Effects.
In this third part of the whole tutorial, I will show you the animation process behind the whole piece in stages and how to create a seamless loop animation that you can use as a cinematic or simply a moving picture.

I devoted this channel to a big part of my life, which is tabletop RPGs, mainly DnD and Pathfinder. But since I work as a motion designer for a marketing company , and dabble in illustration, I decided to round up my skills and try to produce somethign original.
I occasionally draw a parallel line between role playing games and real life situations, delving into psychology and deeper explanation of building a character within the game. My love for handcrafts is something that runs in my family. Basically all of my known family had something to do with craftsmanship, whether it was a paying job, or a hobby, so it was only natural that I get into something similar, hence the crafting and customizing part of this channel. My wish is to entertain you as much as educate you and I hope that we'll all have fun on the way.
