For this assignment I had to create a music video using found footage right from my own phone and find a way to adjust the visuals to make them match. I had so much fun experimenting and playing around with typography, background animation and color-grading, that the biggest pain of adjusting the roto-brush every few frames and trying to clusmily cut-down the music from 3:48 to 1:57 (scope of the project would've been way too big for the time we were given) was easily bearable.

Nero's Battle Theme from Devil May Cry 5 with its lyrics, plus a cat and typography themed music video is probably something you might not expect; but is in fact, a match made in heaven. 
For some it is pineapple on pizza, for others it is fries
in milkshake. But for me, in this case, it is just a weird cat and the type of music you might not expect.


If you ever had the pleasure to be a cat's property for slightly longer than 5 minutes you will certainly know what I mean when I say that there exists but a fraction of a moment in which that little sh!t magically snaps and begins to transform from cutest creature in existence into a fiend - only to come back and act like nothing ever happened just a few seconds after.
