FUN STUFF (that moves)

Things I make for fun, usually when I’m trying or learning something new. A lot of my creative ideas come out here, which I then might apply to work later!

A photo montage/collage of 35mm film photos I took in Hyderabad, India, my home town!

A video I made of social bike rides in NYC using a Super8 Camera.

A photo montage of Istanbul, made when Photoshop’s generative fill first released.

From the very early days of AI video, I used a technique called Warp Diffusion to make a mask around the dancer and generate an animated version of them for each frame.

Obligatory cats! (of Istanbul.)

I imagined my DnD group as anime characters. Made with Veo3 when it first came out.

I made this as a fun exercise in learning how to make 3D objects while drawing them in 2D in Blender.

Another Warp Diffusion dance video.

I made a series of these cut out landscapes in After Effects using many different photos, videos and sounds to composite this.

Another example of the cutout landscapes. I wanted the sound and animation to do a little more of the work here.

An explainer I made about the effects of melting glaciers in the Himalayas.

How it all started. I learned After Effects, and thus motion graphics so I could make history explainers. I promise you will learn something new!

A music video I made for saxophonist Frank Vitolo.

An explainer about how forensic entomologists can determine the time of death. I made this in 2 days in grad school. It is ugly but I swear it’s fun and interesting!
