A time lapse of an owl photo manipulation and implementing it into a web page as a basic before/after slider. Intended to be a good beginner/intermediate DOM manipulation project to practice with:

Music written and recorded by me.
Thanks to Pexels for the photos. Also, shout out to: https://www.pexels.com/@eberhardgross for the intro footage.
This is a collection of music I've written and recorded but remixed for the purpose of lo-fi/muted background music. Enjoy!

C.S. Lewis' sci-fi trilogy is truly immersive. As I was writing this music, it made me wonder what it would be like to experience a peaceful moment in a place like Malacandra. Enjoy!
Thank you to Dom Le Roy from Pexels for the footage.
I wanted to do something fun as an early Christmas present for my wife. She loved it and I got a kick out of making it.
Music: Me improvising the Bob's Burgers theme song on ukulele.
You'll see me fumble a bit here and there as I'm still getting used to Affinity Photo. However, although I'm not affiliated with that company, I highly recommend it as a Photoshop alternative. It's every bit as robust and user friendly. Plus. it's a one time cost and not a subscription.
Till We Have Faces is C.S. Lewis' best work of fiction, in my opinion. Reading that book really changed me. I wanted to create some artwork and music to show my love and respect for it.
Music: Written and recorded by me

I've had a lot of fun writing ambient music and experimenting with different sounds. This one has more guitar involved which makes it more active and uplifting. Perhaps a good way to enhance your mood and sense of focus. Hope you enjoy.
Thanks to Kelly Lacy from Pexels for the footage!
It's a strange time to be alive. Music is necessary for my own sanity and I hope this can bring you a little solace as well. More music is on the way.
Thanks to Julia Joppien from Unsplash for the photo assets.

These are uncertain times. Anxiety and fear have been getting to me and I'm certainly not alone. I wanted to do something therapeutic that I could share and potentially help others with. If nothing else, maybe it will help inspire a sense of wonder and imagination.
This is my first time doing a video like this so if you enjoy it, let me know. I'd like to make more!
Thanks to Andrew Dyer from Pexels for the footage.
I started with a rough thumbnail sketch and began experimenting with different photos before settling on a few images to use. This one was a bit more experimental for me but I'm pleased with how it turned out. Kick back and enjoy. THANK YOU for the support.

I created the design in Photoshop and brought it into After Effects to simply show the gradual process and add some interactivity.
Your eyes have not deceived you, that is truly a new (to me) mythical creature...the Turtlebear. Harmless, but legendary, he can only be found in this remote enchanted area of an unknown forest.
Enjoy a few minutes of relaxation and time away from this world. Thank you, truly.
