Does anybody have a video tutorial for this… I’d love to try it. Don’t know After Effects that well so the tute would help a lot.

Eric, each plate is almost definitely a separate image which Dave has comped together to make the final scene. I seem to remember that in his BTS video for this particular shoot most of these elements were shot in a swimming pool. Also the ’3D’ effect will have been done in After Effects as it is pretty simple to bring in a layered PSD and then move through each layer with a virtual camera.

Very cool and creative. Looks like he might of taken the original images and then broken them down into sections for 3D Photoshop Postcard layers then animated the prospective. So separate your subject and backgrounds into different layers and play with the 3D function of Photoshop and hopefully after 3 sleepless days you have something close to Mr. Hill’s work. What’s interesting is that the original Hill photos seen here are are all heavily composited- I wonder if some of the shots were already broken up during the original shoot and the whole thing was planned from the beginning or an wonderful after thought.

And this is why Dave Hill is one of the most COPIED photographers out there. He has an unmistakable style that many MANY photographers have tried to copy using those awful actions and Lucas Art filters. This man is constantly being chased by copy-cat photographers and retouchers, and yet he has stayed a few steps ahead. This lates work of his is pretty cool. I don’t see the need in it, but the execution is pretty good. I have seen this done better but not cut out and spun around like this. He put a ton of work into this.

Dave Hill is still at the top of his game.
