October 2020

Handbook of Heroes was a weekly gag comic focusing on tabletop RPGs and the many character mishaps that can happen along the way. They commissioned this video intro and outro for any speedpaint or behind the scenes videos they want to share with their Patreon patrons or the public on YouTube or other social media. The comic retired after 10 years so the writer and artist to could focus on new projects.

The title and end card art was all created by Laurel Shelley-Reuss (who illustrates Handbook of Heroes). All animation was done by me in Adobe After Effects. The text extrusion was done through AE’s C4D render options, and the smoke effect was created with the Trapcode Particular extension. Music tracks were selected by me from Envato.
