2009 Motion Graphics Reel from Andy Sapp on Vimeo.
My 2009 reel showcasing my motion graphics efforts. Short, sweet, and right to the point. Enjoy.
Soundtrack: Motor by SebastiAn.
Some SICK stickers from 123KLAN showed up in my mailbox today. These things are going all over everything I own! Snag some before the supply dries up at their online store and support these guys!
Averaged Motion Tracking. from Andy Sapp on Vimeo.
A short clip I made while experimenting with averaging track points in After Effects to create solid, precise tracks. In the past when I have motion tracked… it always seems slightly off. I have now learned that if you track several times over, and average that data together – you get a rock-solid tracking point.
I then created some quick motion-type pieces to follow the these points. It took several layers of compositing to create the illusion of depth caused by things passing in front of one another. I added a light-streak to the back of Tyler’s light to see if I could match the live video with an object in 3D space (the particle emitter for the light).
This video clip was shot using a Flip Mino HD, which was not the best to try and track with. The motion blur made it incredibly difficult to find solid track points. I’m sure I will try more of this using my XL-H1.
This was a fun experiment that I learned a great deal from. I’m excited at some new possibilities that will come of this new workflow.
A quick design I made for a short-run of eight-page flyers. These thank you cards will go out with every Slide Styleâ„¢ order.
I revamped the online store on MotorMavens. Using Big Cartel’s pre-existing shopping cart template, I was able to tweak everything to fit within the exiting framework of the site. Now combining shipping and accommodating international customers with overseas shipping options is MUCH easier.
Another logo design that saw MANY revisions and explorations. The final version was found in the second set of variations… the first and third sets being drastically different from this batch – but altogether vital to the creative process. Further proof that your first idea is not always your best.
MotorMavens Ident Bumper from Andy Sapp on Vimeo.
This short 5-second animation (which loops three times) is something I created to preface online video efforts for MotorMavens.
Regrettably, I axed the beard today.
Now my face feels cold.
Lonely and cold.
A new sticker design I just finished up. Over the years this has become my mantra. Keeping drifting fun is something that is INCREDIBLY important to me. I felt stickers would be an appropriate way to spread the gospel.
These black/white/red on clear stickers should be back just in time for the holidays… and will be available on slide-style.com.

This Deathmachines.net interview offers a really cool insight to how my buddy Will Roegge got into shooting and editing some of the most visually stunning automotive content EVER. This video also has a sneak peek at the 2010 Medium Monster reel… to which I spied some footage from the DMGGMASD events!
