Welcome video comp via Design Reactor for Apple's OSX introduction software, "MacBuddy." Animated with Maya particles, ReelSmart Motion Blur, and After Effects. I needed some flexibility for this project, in order to accommodate Apple's exacting standards for making minute changes. Particle simulations are notoriously hard to control, so I animatd the piece about twice as slowly as I thought we would need, and then used time remapping to squeeze and stretch the timing throughout the piece.
