I made this video for a college class where we had to take a movie and edit a trailer that presents it as a different genre! I chose Wonder Park, given how it featured horror movie elements at many points!
I made this using a combination of iMovie (which was used for a rough cut) and Adobe Premiere Pro, making this my first true attempt at using the software. It mostly felt good to use despite not being as simple as iMovie. I wanna master it in future videos.
Also wanna apologize for not uploading for a long while. I promise to have more videos, including YouTube Shorts, coming very soon!
Beginning music was "Evening Melodrama" by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), and the horror movie trailer music came from this: youtube.com/watch?v=q2Y7zw8cjUM
This short was made as a project for my university's advanced compositing class, where I had to build a digital set using Unreal Engine and then film myself in front of the school's giant screen. Some shots were digitally composited using Adobe After Effects (using the roto brush tool). Everything was first edited together in Adobe Premiere Pro (allowing for the Earthquake effect) and then moved into iMovie.
It's been a while since I've posted a new video. Apologies for that. Being a full-time student at a university does make it hard to focus on YouTube. For those who had patience and stayed on this channel despite the long gaps between videos, thank you so much.
The good thing is that now that I'm done with the semester, I can finally get back to uploading videos semi-consistently again! I have an animation that I've worked on during the same semester that I will upload as soon as I add all improvements to it.
All the music was by Kevin MacLeod! (incompetech.com)

Due to other classes, I had a short period of time to make this short, but luckily, I got a good grade on this project. My teacher praised me for including foreshadowing and plot twists, as well as the vantage points used. The only critiques I got were to color in the cards and increase the exposure on certain shots. I got a 39.5/37 on the project (because I also submitted a storyboard along with the script) which boosted my overall class grade to an insane 101%. I hope you guys enjoy this short too!
This should also hopefully keep you guys satisfied after not posting a video for over 3 months. I'm happy for those of you who are hanging in there and trust me, you'll be seeing new reviews and animations pretty soon!

For this assignment, we had to look at some stop-motion works from a chapter of the book "A New History of Animation" by Maureen Furniss. My inspiration was the 1926 film The Adventures of Prince Achmed, which is the earliest available animated film. It used cutout silhouettes to create a look based on shadow theater performances. I used the style of that film along with the abstract design of the backgrounds (most noticeably with the clouds).
Admittedly, I wish I could have made this longer, but I had to juggle different school assignments so I had to keep this one short. Hopefully, I can make my next class projects longer.
This short was also posted on YouTube to show that I am not gonna stop posting animations on this channel. I have some fun stuff in the works on that front!

Also, yesterday was my channel's 14th anniversary, so it was almost perfect timing. Yay...
In this video, I present to you guys an app that I designed recently in college, which is an Art Motivation app. This prototype was made using the Figma web application.
This is just a cool little video to make up for not posting a full review or animation in a long time. I finished the Spring semester at my university not too long ago, so I am currently working on new vids for you guys.

In this video, we take a look at the recently found 2000 test pitch for the 2006 animated movie Barnyard! I take a look at the history of this piece of animation and provide my thoughts on the pilot overall.

Hello guys! It's been a little more than a month since my last video, and I apologize for that. School has been a priority for me for the past few weeks, and I thought I should give you guys something until my next analysis video comes out!
Here's a reel of 2D animations I created with Adobe Animate since 2017. The final clip shown is of an upcoming animation starring a new original character, Dand E. Lion! Stay tuned for that sometime this month!
There has been chatter about a potential merger between Paramount Global and Warner Bros Discovery. I am here today to discuss why this merger would be bad for the industry and consumers. This will also discuss common issues with mergers like this, most notably Disney's 2019 buyout of Fox.

In this animatic, an Australian Shepherd named Jack Goodeboy is working at an elementary school as an emotional support animal. He is the adoptive father of two joeys named Joe and Joanna. He carries a box with him in school one day that he says is for a “special someone”. Joe and Joanna’s curiosity gets the best of them!
This short was another one created for a University digital course as a way to show off what I learned! This was done step by step. First, there was a pre-production deck describing the basic story and characters, followed by a script, then a series of storyboards, and finally an animatic!
I did all of the voices here. I came up with these voices on the spot in one take for each character, so I am aware that it could have been better. I do want to someday get voice actors for my animated projects, and a composer as well.
Hope you enjoy this animatic! If you want to see this fully animated someday, let me know, and I’ll consider doing that in the future! I do want to use Jack and the Joeys more as well.

In this video, I discuss animated fantasy musicals and 4 tropes associated with it!
This was originally a video made for a college class. For the assignment, I needed to talk about a certain genre for a 4-10 minute video.
For this upload, I added some more footage as well as background music!

In this new live-action short film, Alberto Herrera (me) is having a normal day with his two plush toys, but it turns out those toys may have a secret that they’re not telling him because it’s a secret!
This short was created for a University digital course as a way to show off what I learned in the class! This wasn’t scripted or storyboarded at all, it was just a “wing-it” situation, and that was pretty fun!
In case you’re wondering, yes there will be more episodes of Alberto’s Editing Adventures! I’m also planning on releasing video reviews of two animated films: The Inventor (which is about 90% done at this point) and Under the Boardwalk (which I really want to do because it will be a follow-up to my Paramount video). Also, animations will be hopefully coming before the year ends!

In this first episode of my new series, I explore 6 different camera movements by describing what they are and then presenting my own examples of those movements.
As explained in the intro, this seems out of nowhere, but I want to keep my channel ongoing with content, so I will post my school projects here to keep my viewers satisfied until my next review or animation.
Also, today’s my birthday!

This review took about a month to complete (on a couple of days I wasn't working on it). Hope you enjoy it! I plan to review more movies that I have seen this summer. I plan to talk about Elemental, Spider-Verse, Nimona, (maybe) Transformers Rise of the Beasts, and (maybe) The Flash.
I'm also going to release animations that are less than a minute as part of my Herrera Comics series. More YTP reuploads will be coming to my AlbertoYTPz channel on top of that before I post new ones.

This was initially posted as a YouTube Short and a TikTok, but I wanted to also upload it as a full video in 4K with credits.
I hope this will satisfy you until I start getting my reviews up (the one currently being edited is the one for The Little Mermaid remake). Also, more animations are on the way!
Also also, there are more YTPs being reuploaded to my AlbertoYTPz channel along with new ones, so look out for that!

Episode 2 of my Alberto's Animated Pieces series! In this short, a golfer just wants to golf, but the golf ball just doesn't let the golf man golf!
This marks my very last animation made in high school before graduation. This started production in March right before the pandemic and finished for my school's broadcast series in May.
This one has a slightly different style than my other animations because I gave the golfing man detailed irises and I made the background blurred. The blurred background with the animated flag was one of the trickiest to pull off and it created a big file.
There are no sound effects in this video because 1) I didn't have that much time, and 2) I wanted this to have an almost silent cartoon feel.
The biggest difference between this and the original HD version is that the text at the beginning (and the thumbnail) has a different font, which was done automatically. If you want to see what this looked like with the original text, click here: youtube.com/watch?v=cMUA3qdOKLo
Enjoy! Stay tuned for more animations!
In the first cartoon of the Alberto's Animated Pieces series, two dog friends named Rufus and Mop decide to go to a beach despite warnings of the "Big Sick".
I made this animated short in about a week as part of my high school's broadcast show. I planned for this to be longer, but time constraints forced me to have to make it shorter. I may release a director's cut in the future.
The next episode coming on April 1st was also made for my high school's show. Each episode after that will have more time put into them.

This was a short made during a kid's summer camp at my high school where I and others in the TV program had to teach kids how to animate and edit videos. I helped two kids named Eric and Gabby by showing them how to use animation to make something comedic. Later in 2021, I remastered this in 4K while also adding music, sound effects, and Nick's eyelids at the end.
This is also a spin-off of the Dream video series, and it even marks the official debut of the dogs from Dream: A Doggone Ride (although Husky has a different design here, and Bruno was initially named "Spots").

In this cartoon advertisement, Mime sets up a trap for rats, but it doesn't really go well...
This was an animated project I made during my senior year of high school in Economics class. In 2021, I decided to enhance the animation, by not just restoring it in 4K, but adding shadows, sound effects, music, and saliva effects when Mime blows a raspberry at the rat.

This was an entry for the "Stop Texting & Driving Video Scholarship Contest" held by Raybin & Weissman, P.C. in Nashville. I’m quite proud of this one, especially with the unique style and the tagline at the end.
Here’s an alternate cut of this PSA: youtu.be/isBYP_4B4Uw
Music: “Fairytale Waltz” (Royalty Free) by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)
This was a short PSA video that I made as a scholarship entry for Population Media Center. This was rushed, so I had to use a style that would be quick and easy to do. That’s why there’s also an error towards the end with the “Limit” sign appearing for a brief moment.
Note: For some reason, I couldn't get this video in full HD. If you want to see it in higher quality, click here: youtu.be/05K5RbjXwr4

Nick Berger is very busy with his math homework, which means that he doesn't have time to play with his two dogs, Husky and Bruno. But when the dogs cause an accident, Husky must go into Nick's dream using a product from a mysterious mouse so he can get Nick to play with him more. Can Husky save Nick from being lunch?
This short was actually one of the very last things I saw on a big screen before the pandemic happened, and that alone is what gives this particular short a special place in my heart. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did working on it!

A boy named Roberto is torn about what he should give to his girlfriend Roxanne for Valentine's Day. What is the perfect gift that he can give her?
I made this short in high school with a partner. This was the only live-action short on my Herrera Films channel. The funny thing is, we wanted to film this at CVS, but the lady working at the store didn't let us lol.
Also yes, I know my acting is bad.
Happy Valentine's Day everybody! 3 years ago, I made this short animation for my social media accounts, and it features reused animations from the Dream and Sugar Raccoon videos!
Also, stay tuned, because later today, I will post a live-action short that I made for Valentine's Day!
The Sugar Raccoon is a candy product in Candy Wonder, and all he wants is to find his family. He breaks out so he can find them, but along the way, he learns something important about family.

This was originally posted on Twitter, but I decided to post it on YouTube as well because I wanted to keep you guys satisfied until my next couple of videos come out. I am not as busy right now with college as I used to be, so stay tuned for more videos during the summer!
This one was very time-consuming due to how much heavy editing I had to do. I'm more than happy with the way it turned out! Hope you enjoy this!
