I like to use both 2D and 3D visual effects in commercial and educational videography to demonstrate the principles or concepts that are trying to be conveyed. The screenshot on the left is some work I'm doing on an educational piece for a religion class offered by BYU Independent Study. This is the rendered version of an animated 3D model of the city of Babylon and the Ishtar Gate. The professor was explaining how Babylon is a symbol for worldliness in opposition to God. I chose to animate this in 3D because it allowed me to show the scale and complexity of the city of Babylon, which helped convey the professor's teaching.
Working in 3D is challenging at first. Modeling and keyframing are probably the most difficult things for a beginner. On the right is a project file created in
Blender, a powerful, open source 3D animation program. The great thing about 3D is it affords so many more possibilities to your project.
