The Adobe Challenge Grad Price Winner

Backstory

Link to high-res version.

It's human instinct to explore. Historically, human exploration sought to conquer the physical world around us, by challenging the edge of a perceived flat world, taking flight and, eventually, slicing through the atmosphere into space. However, now we have the ability, with the help of Photoshop, to create our own virtual worlds where exploration seems limitless; unbound by the laws of physics.

The entire animation was done completely with Photoshop and After Effects (with a touch of Illustrator for logo preparation). No 3rd party plug-ins, programs, animation, videos were used; just the tools that ship standard with Adobe software. All photos are original - taken with my Nikon D80 (organized in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom). The music is also original. Audio mix and sound design by Lewie Avramovich.
