This is a short shot breakdown of a classic day4night visual effects shot I adopted as my pet project.

I shot the source footage in Berlin this year with my Canon 5D Mk II without a tripod (big mistake) and did the compositing in After Effects to see whether I still know how to use it.

Total time spent on this was about 20 hours, including all the entertaining rotoscoping tasks. I hope you like it. And if you spot some minor flaws: I am aware of them! :)
