This is a fully animated background I created in After Effects, from a still jpeg.
This was originally created as video supplement for a song my friend created to post on YouTube and the lighting, in the cabin, around, the smoke and the sky were made to adapt to its waveform. I learned a lot about AE expressions working on this project.
I tried to make this as a gif under the art category, but I just couldn't shrink the size(5 seconds was larger than a minute and thirty video)
