I like the opening example of this compositing reel, where everything was blocked out in bright colours. It reminds me of the iPod ads, but is more fluid. I also like how the video is in sync with the audio. While I'm not sure exactly what techniques were shown I know that they had to heavily colour grade some parts, like the silhouettes. This video likely required some rotoscoping to mask out anything around the shapes and separate the different coloured areas. The silhouette shapes work effectively because they are so fluid. They flow easily from one image to another, which guides the eye and gives it a creative flair. I do not like how these images have no relation to each other. They don't follow a narrative or theme. On thing that makes this example really work is how the video follows the audio. They are really well matched and the funky music makes the images seem more dynamic. I am inspired by the fluidity of this example. I like how the silhouette clip, and indeed most of the examples on this reel, have are dynamic and colourful. Nothing is static and nothing is particularly realistic, but the colour and the flow attract the eye and provide interest.
