This promo takes its reference from the Sun and Water. Created in Apple Motion, a background of flowing water forms a base for animated text. The text Sunshine Coast is repeated around a center point, masked, colored and animated to give the feel of the suns rays.

Background fish were produced by drawing a single fish shape with Motions mask shape tools and animating many instances of the shape to produce a realistic school of fish. This is an example the subtle yet important attention to detail that creating visual elements requires. The fish are not prominant but their inclusion makes for a more visually interesting scene.

Displacement was applied to the main text to simulate an undewater feel.

This test for a news ident was created in Apple Motion. Layers of light were replicated and animated in 3 dimentions to produce a point of focus out of which the logo is revealed. The background globe was produced and animated in Zaxwerks Pro Animator and then imported into the project to add some visual interest.
