Vibe Check
Vibe Check is a pilot about four queer friends living in Downtown Toronto, trying to navigate career, school, love and friendship while finding a chosen family within one another. I designed a CG promotional teaser for the project based on a brief from the director, and later returned to the project at their request, to create a title card for the project's production company Dapper Queens. Neon is a key aesthetic of Vibe Check, so I paid close attention to properly emulating the details of neon signage both up close, and from a distance.
This project was all about emulating how neon signs look, from the way they are wired to simulating proper IOR with the glass tubing. The promo was created with Instagram in mind, thus the 1:1 aspect ratio. The full spot was completed in Blender, with minor compositing in After Effects

Later in the post production phase of Vibe Check, I was asked to return to do title design for the production company behind the film. The effect was completed with Blender and a procedural matte technique in After Effects to have fine tune control over the flickering of the letters.
