Serious Business (Doubles)



Here is a project that required me to have multiples of myself in one shot. Sounds pretty impossible don’t it? Well unless you are in John Towsen’s class, it is. I took a number of shots of myself doing things around the table and compiled the best ones in After Effects, making sure the timing was right on all the crazy characters.
Difficulties: I did not have a partner to help me with this so when aiming for my face with the slap I was doing a lot of guessing. I also had to do retakes every time I noticed that I might have been infringing on my counterparts space which would make masking more difficult. This happened a lot with the dancing and here again I could also have used an assistant.
