I like to take pictures and make them into short flash movies. I hope to eventually have enough movies for my own online greeting card site. This is a Halloween movie. It was inspired by the original night shot I took in my backyard using a Nikon D200. For the movie I felt it needed a 1920x 1080 aspect ratio so I added the leaf overlay in photoshop. I drew and animated the twinkling pixies and the shooting star fairy (or witch taking flight, since it's Halloween) in flash. The scene inspired the music which is me and my husband playing guitar. We purposely staggered the twin guitar solos and made them quirky to help set the mood.
I hope you guys like it. It's not high action animation from scratch like most of you do and are used to but I had a lot of fun doing it. It's not perfect but I think it creates a mood and I hope you do too!
