In this thesis a video with 2.5D parallax in photography was created and posted on Instagram.
The theoretical part introduces the theory of photography, which is important to understand, especially in the initial stages of work, to achieve desired results by choosing the right settings. It explains what parallax is and in which other fields in nature, science and art it is used. It also explains what 2.5D parallax is and the use of camera in this context. Motion design is described by moving the camera in 3D space, as well as additional effects and techniques to accentuate motion, which is important for creating the final presentational video. Finally, examples of the use of 2.5D parallax are given.
Experimental part consists of five phases. First phase is capturing photos. In this phase we use our understanding of the theory of photography to capture appropriate photographs with a camera on a tripod. In the second phase we edit the photos, first by using Adobe Lightroom and then Adobe Photoshop. Here we merge photos, correct the colour, the imperfections, and we cut and refine the individual layers. The third phase involves positioning layers in 3D space in Adobe After Effects. The fourth phase describes the procedures for creating the final presentational video in Adobe After Effects, followed by the fifth and final phase where the final video is exported using Adobe Media Encoder and posted on Instagram.
In Results and Discussions section, the success of the final video and of each phase is commented on, as well as any challenges encountered during the process. The final video is compared to products of other authors. Visual material and link to the final product are added. The hypothesis is challenged and refuted, followed by suggestions for continuing the work.
