In this shot, all the sperm tails were animated in sync to the beat of the music. I considered offsetting the timing, but decided that having them working in unison made more sense. The added benefit of course was that I only had to animate the tail wag once and then I could duplicate it and move each to their respective sperm head.
The added depth map and camera move makes the sperm swim to screen left.
COVID Dystopia will screen at the Orlando Film Festival on November 1 and 7, 2024. The November 1 screening is at 4:15pm and the November 7, 2024 screening is at 2pm, both in theater 9. At 8pm on November 7 is the Awards Ceremony which I will also attend in case I need to pick up another award. The Orlando Film Festival runs from October 31 to November 7 at the CMX PLAZA CINEMA CAFE 155 S. Orange Ave, Downtown, Orlando FL. A one day pass is $20 and you can see a whole lot of films in one day. When I attend a film festival I treat it like a movie marathon. If you go to a screening, I will be easy to find as the one person in a KN-95 mask. We might be done with COVID, but COVID is not done with us.
