My Last Day of Summer is a short film created in 2019. There was a video contest hosted by RaceFace Components to fund individual film projects. I had never created a film before, but submitted my pitch. I was excited to be a chosen filmmaker and had 3 months to complete the project.
It’s the last day of summer and Julia is at the local bike shop hoping that her bike can be fixed. While checking out the flashy displays of new bikes and shiny components, a comic book catches her eye. The comic explores a world which stylizes the sights and sounds she experiences on the trails. The comic captures her imagination and she soon finds herself on a ride like none other.

2D to 3d
To seamlessly transition digital art into live action film, I used AfterEffects to create a 3D space to layer 2D planes to create depth. This resulted in realistic film transitions.
