let yourself feel.
let yourself feel is a project that was inspired by the beautiful music of icelandic composer Olafur Arnalds.
i made this trying to do something different, sensitive and of course, good looking =).
after i finished it and put it up to vimeo.com, things went crazy.
the video got showcased in major sites like www.designyoutrust.com , www.motionographer.com, www.toolfarm.com and many more. also was heavily reblogged on design sites and and amongst facebook users.
eventually, the very own Olafur wrote me and proposed me to make my animation the official video for the song. Of course, i said yes.

what software was it done with?
ei esteban, im Harry from B6Tag Co.
i first saw “let yourself feel” animation in Kontain.
i got interested in it… and saw at a forum where you gave your technique using particular.
i was wondering… only if possible… can you share a screenshot of your setting in particular? ive been using particular but i cant figure out the setting on how the smoke lines to scatter and not look like a white bubble foam.
anyway, this is only if possible.. i’ll understand if you can’t, atleast i took a shot of asking you.
cheers!
Harry
I’m amazed. In all honesty I could probably stare at this all day.
And to answer to the other commentors, from what I read on another site this was created utilizing Adobe After Effects and Particular v2.

Guys, copycats…please. Why don’t you play around with the software yourself, trying to find something interestering/unique/appealing instead of ripping of someone elses findings?
