Adobe After Effects Unmatched Training DVD Behind The Scenes Production Pictures

My good friend Tony Koyabe ,Please visit his inspiring website by going to http://stechnologies.co.za/
Tony provided ALL the action and stunning performances needed for the Advanced training DVD, he is such a good actor that I didn't even need to write a script for him.
He truly provided compelling performance and I look forward to continue working with him into the future.

The Intel Core2Quad Q6600 Machine on which I will be doing all the post-production works (Editing, Visual effects, motion graphics, animation). I call it "Padi", after my sister


Hi guys, My friends Ziana, Tony Koyabe, and Myself have been very busy over the weekend of July 25 2008 shooting the scenes for the great upcoming product Adobe After Effects Unmatched. Yeah, there is the saying that the "The Real Star of the film is Never in the film", well in our case, we say that "All the starts of our film WERE in the film"

We had so much fun, especially shooting on a green screen....Although we looked like fools for the most part...all in the name of great visual effects in our motion graphics!!!
