A Local Ad I Created

Advance by Touch Ad by Chris Guzman.

 This ad will be shown at the 5,100-seat Tim's Toyota Center, during the Arizona Sundogs hockey games.

The rose pedals are from actual roses that I picked, and scanned from my home.  The images are applied to simple geometry that is driven by a particle system.  The particle system is reacting to gravity, wind, and drag, to produce the animation for this ad.  The photos are also applied to simple geometry, and the camera is animated along a spline path.

The lighting for this ad required a far amount of work. I had to make a lot of adjustment between the actual lights in the scene, the background, and adding some self-illumination on the materials used.

Moonrise

The Moon from Chris Guzman on Vimeo.

 

I used a Phoenix 1000mm f/8 Mirror Lens on my Canon EOS 5D Mark II to capture this video of the lovely full moon on a cloudless night.  I increased the playback speed of this video, so the moon is moving across the sky at 1,246% it's actual speed.

The video quality of this camera continues to impress me.  It produces results like this even with a relatively low quality lens.
