Vexercise 2 Check In (2021)

[lola]

Hello all! Happy Saturday! How are your Vexercise 2s going? Are folks trying for match on action? Light building? Both? 
I was messing around with something and then it got out of control and became a vid not a vexercise, so back to square one for me :D 
If you've started already, are there things you're finding challenging? Satisfying? Both at once?
If you're stuck and not quite sure how to start, maybe share your thinking, your idea, your approach, and we can all help brainstorm!

Well, I picked an idea that I thought would give me lots of clips with similar motions to play with ... er, not so much. It appears that the Rats (and their sympathetic opponent) perform insubordination in a wide variety of ways!

On the other hand, I did manage some motion matching in a couple of places. Plus I got to be SO much more familiar with, and less frustrated by, Filmora, w00t!

Senior Service/Junior Dissatisfaction

[Edited to add] Elvis Costello writes brilliant lyrics and then sings them so no one can understand them, so I'm going to figure out how to add subtitles using Filmora and add the lyrics to the vid. Might take me a couple days!

The opening was very strong with the jeeps! I really liked the motion matching there.

I wasn't even thinking of that as motion matching! I just liked the idea of the two "leaping jeeps" from the opening credits fitting with the instrumental opening of the song, and since there wasn't enough material between them, I took apart a 3-part turn from one of the source episodes and used that to fill up the interstices.

I'm so glad it worked! And thank you so much for watching and for your supportive comment. <3
