RB Tentacle Update #1 Stockholm

Tentacle update#1 thumb

So this is what I’ve been working on lately, the first of two video updates for the new Random Bastards full length Snowboardfilm: TENTACLE, dropping this fall.

When editing I take inspiration from the music I choose. This time it’s on the border to plagiarism;) check out the original Aphex Twin ”Windowlicker” musicvideo below. It’s one of my absolute favorites.
OBS! The actual music video starts at 4:17, and is NSFW!

The face-warp effect was achieved in Adobe After Effects, using Andrew Kramer’s Demon Face Warp tutorial.

Another plugin I used alot (perhaps a bit too much) was Optical Flares, a plugin for After Effects also by Andrew Kramer.
