Video Animation

Video animation is fun! There are many tools that can be used and many different ways to create the final work.
The Tools
I am experimenting with video animation using Adobe Premiere, Adobe Photoshop and Blender at the moment. I have used Adobe Edge Animate to create some simple animated web graphics, which worked quite well. I created the clip above (Zeppelins Over Fort Pierce) with Photoshop.
I shot some video with my Samsung Galaxy S3 and imported them into a video timeline in Photoshop. I then added a graphic of the zeppelin I made years ago as a .PNG file.
YouTube and Beyond…
Then, I fiddled around with keyframes, added a title card and exported it to YouTube, where I added some free music.
This took about one hour, not including the part where I walked over the bridge in the blazing Florida sun.
