I think that I did quite well on mine, but I do prefer the first one because I think that I blended it overall better and I think that the concept was better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Motion Graphics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p6 Motion Graphics MaartenB\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OuFhtAPGJOg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For our next project in digital media I did Motion Graphics which is basically animating stuff in After Effects. Before I made the one you see above, I made five different practice videos where I practiced various things like the animated lines and waveforms you can see in the final video. I also did other things like Rotoscoping which is a type of animation where you animate over previously existing video. In the end, I put the video together from all of the practice I had done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multi-Layer Project<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For our next project in digital media we did our most Worldbuilding connected project. We were tasked with making either a paper light box, a piece of stacked wood art or a piece of ring art based on our World building project. All of them were cut out with Mr. Flo&#8217;s laser machine. I chose to do the paper light box. I designed  an image of a time portal in Illustrator. With multiple layers, you create a deepening portal effect by having each layer be a strip of the portal that goes back in space. I also added a silhouette of our two main characters standing in front of it, and about to go through. I added the text at the top for visual interest. Overall, this project was very fun and one the very few physical art projects we do at Freestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1066\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MaartenB-Final-Assembled-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MaartenB-Final-Assembled-1.jpg 1066w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MaartenB-Final-Assembled-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MaartenB-Final-Assembled-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MaartenB-Final-Assembled-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1066px) 100vw, 1066px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-21-005730-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-997\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-21-005730-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-21-005730-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-21-005730-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MaartenB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-21-005730.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can see here an image of my process in Illustrator, and the final image from the multi-layer project\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Videos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the last part of the multi-layer project we made 2 videos you can see below. One of them is a timelapse of laser cutting and assembling the physical lightbox. The second one\u00a0 shows off the layers of the lightbox in a 3D animated and camera panning form that is quite interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p6 Layered Art MaartenB\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WSx9P6S9VfY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p6 Digital Layered Art MaartenB\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/n1g50LMbKoQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the multi-layer art project I created a multitude of things. The main part of the project is creating a layered cardstock lightbox used to show the project in a physical form. The first step was to use Illustrator to design it based on my Worldbuilding project. My goal was to create a portal with an interesting tunnel effect to be cool and have a 3-D effect. I made each layer of the light box into a smaller hole that was portal shaped, to make it look like the portal was stretching back in space. After completing the layers of the portal, I decided to add a silhouette of the two people from our story going through the portal. This would enhance the aesthetic of the portal and add more depth to the overall piece. I also added text above the portal as a fun extra design touch. After I was done, Mr. Florendo laser cut it out with his machine and once we were done laser cutting the pieces out I assembled them into a box made out of laser cut wood that I had previously assembled. I spray painted the outside of the box silver. After that, I started assembling the layers with Elmer&#8217;s glue and foam separators to emphasize the 3-D effect and then once I glued them all in we added LED strips to the back that I colored purple and blue, After it was done I made a time lapse video of the assembly, which I had been filming the whole time. To get the video to be under the required two minutes I had to speed up the footage I had taken over 5000 percent of its regular speed. Once the video was done, I did the final part of this project which was making a 3-D render of the layers in After Effects where I used key frame animation to pan the camera around, and truly emphasizing the 3-D effect.  I thought this project was extremely fun and a great expansion of my skills in many ways.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For narrative two in digital media we did many projects that honed our narrative craft to prepare us to make our World building better.
