BLOW / 2D VFX

BLOW / Fan M/V of Ed Sheeran

2D VFX

Hello, I'm Hyunji Yoon. I am a junior graphic designer in GIANTSTEP and my work is mostly on motion graphic design.

For the past six months, I have been participating as a 2D VFX designer in the Project : "BLOW (Fan M/V of Ed Sheeran)" with Director Changhoon Nam.
It was an honor to work with Director Nam and I am grateful for the successful result we have reaped together.
I spent the first two months getting the hang of the concept sketch and the key visuals of the video.
The remaining four months was mainly used for motion graphics and 2D artwork.

올해 5월 남창훈님의 BLOW 작품에 2D VFX 작업자로 참여하게 되었습니다.
초반 두달정도 영상에 대한 이해와, 키비쥬얼 작업 후, 4개월 동안 2D 아트웍을 진행 했는데요,

좋은 기회로 멋진 작품에 참여 할 수 있어서 영광이었습니다!

Reference

As you may have noticed, the style and the main theme of 2D graphics were inspired by

the movie "Spider-Man:The Universe," the Netflix animation series "Love Death and Robot-The Witness,"

and many other comic book-styled references. However, we did not forget to keep the originality of our artwork.

2D 아트웍은 Spider-man : the universe 와 Witness(love death robots) 에서 영감을 받았으며,

그 밖에도 많은 카툰 스타일의 레퍼런스를 바탕으로 'BLOW' 만의 느낌을 구축하는데 많은 시간을 들였습니다.

Key Visual

I worked on Key visuals under the direction of Changhoon Nam for about a month.

초반 한 달 정도 남창훈님의 디렉팅하에 키비주얼 작업을 진행했습니다.

2D Style Frame & Process

The key role of the 2D effects in 'BLOW' can be summed into two seemingly contrasting words: Restrained and vibrant.
In our project, the 2D effects must not stand out, but rather, support the main 3D scene.
However, at the same time, they must emphasize the energetic vibe coming from the speed of the scene.
I tried to achieve this by using unexcessive number of 2D effects, but keeping the vivid styles of animated cartoon.

2D 이펙트는 카툰 스타일을 살리면서 3D 씬에 잘 녹아드는 것에 중점을 두었고,

임팩트와 속도감을 줄 수 있는 Blow만의 느낌으로 표현하고자 했습니다.
