 1. Horror Short Film : - Sound of Fear is an original short film of horror genre. It is a story of 2 friends who go to a shady forest area to hangout, only to discover the place is haunted by a deadly apparition which chases its preys until their dead.

This entire short film was shot, edited, composited and directed by me. Most importantly the entire sound design of the film was done by me solely. This is one of my personal projects done in collaboration with friends.

A lot of shots from the film have been tweaked during editing. Such as the colour palette. A lot of shots were shot during evening/sunset time. But with the help of Masks in Adjustment layers in Adobe Premiere Pro, I have transitioned the shots to look like night time or shots with dim lighting; Such as shots in the forest areas. I have used clone effect for a character in frame by crop effect. Reader shall understand what I am referring to once they view the short film.

DISCLAIMER: -

The story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this production are fictitious. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places, natural or artificial and products is intended or should be inferred. All the shots in the film are original and none of them have been used from any other creator's videos.

The score and theme music used in this film have been obtained from a royalty free music website - Premiumbeat.com                                                                                                                                                                                              

The SFX and Foleys used have been downloaded from a free sound effects platform - Soundly.                               

We do not claim to own those audio tracks except a few that have been used from the original video recordings of the footage from the shots.

2. After effects animations: - This video contains 8 kinetic typography animation videos made on Adobe After Effects. They are a compilation of my best typography animations so far. Some of the words have been animated with CC effects from the effects and presets panel whilst some have been simply animated with the help of basic properties or morphing.

The words animated here are:                                                                                                                                                                      

                        1. Play, 2. Viral, 3. Duplicate, 4. Connectivity, 5. Sensitive, 6. Hypocrisy,                                                                                      7. Ignite, 8. Procrastination. 

3. COMIC BOOK ILLUSTRATION - ADOBE PHOTOSHOP. A digital illustration in the form of a comic book - The opening scene from the 2016 Western Crime/drama Hell or High Water (2016). But the ending of the scene has been changed and has been given a personal ideation of how I'd like the scene to be. The frames are referred to from the original scene but not traced. They have been done on different layers of lineart, colour and lastly smart filters to give the retro effect of the comic book texture.

4. MAYA - Modelling. 

As a university student in Animation Second year; During 4th semester we were taught the basics and beginning of modelling in Maya and following are my objects in Maya in 3D as well as wireframe mode.

The objects modelled are:

1. A barrel and crate using UV editor in Maya.

2. A book using UV editor and wooden texture to the table using lambert.

3. A vintage car model using image planes.

4. Fruits and basket made using CV curve tool then revolved and converted from NURBS to polygons, Table made from basic polygons and texture through lambert.

5. Hand model and it's wireframe made through extrusion and vertex snapping.

5. MAYA - FX.

1. Basic dominos toppling animation with gravity and active rigid body.

2. n-Cloth and texture material properties along with a small animation to the box.

3. Human Model scale animation along with nparticle animation from model.

4. Mash noise, block animation in shape of fish.

5. Butterfly animation with a background as a garden environment - turbulence field, air field, instancer and particle 1 along with sample elements from content browser within Maya.

6. Tile audio beat animation with music sync. - MASH1 and repromash. Timeline animation insync with custom audio.
