NEXT-GEN Nescot week 1 - Finished Induction Project (Year 2)

During week 1 of year 2 we were tasked in groups with creating a video that would show photoshop versions of our faces over dancing characters in a setting of our choosing. This format was taken from the videos/app called "Elf Yourself". In these videos, a series of characters would dance choreographically, with images of your choosing over their face (they would also do some actions as well).

For the format that our group project would be, we took a vote to decide what we would do. The vote came to the conclusion that the group would decide to do a parody of the 2016 elections in America. This lead to the name becoming "Elect Yourself".

Firstly, we took images of each of our own faces and photoshopped them to appear similar/the same as the electoral candidates that we would be representing. I was nominated (by my group) to act as Donald Trump.

After this, we green screened each of us dancing and doing an action. For example, my action was building a wall. I tracked my photoshopped face over my face for both of the video clips and tracked wall pieces to my hand to make it appear as if I was building the wall.

Overall I believe I did very well on this assignment. However, if I had more time I would have rotoscoped my fingers over the top of the bricks to add slightly more realism.
