3D Scene Adverts

Tutorial with 3D Phone Movement and 3D Token Assets
The showering Tokens and the 3D phone model are just a few examples of how I can use 3D assets, animate them and bring them into another scene.

Then the movement was animated along with the final narration playing in he timeline to capture the precise moments for movement.

The card animation is made using various Physics and keyframes in Blender. The alpha version was made using the same animation with alternative camera settings and compositing nodes to choose which objects should be transparent.
