Low-Budget Music Video needs VFX work

Dear Artists,

We are currently seeking a vfx artist to help compose a few shots on a low budget music video. The shots we are looking for involve our actor looking into a mirror and seeing a distorted disfiguration in his reflection. Sort of like a fun house mirror but worse, almost frightening as the scene symbolizes the realization of this character’s having become a monster, which prompts him to change his ways.

Another shot we are looking for work on is the same character, close up on his eyes with what should look like fire embers and sparks in his pupils.

Finally, on the same close up shot of this character’s eyes, the reflection of an angel in one eye, and a demon in the other. We won’t need any illustration or animation as we’ll shoot these images on set.

Our budget is very meager so we are open to artists of all skill levels but will be operating on a tight deadline, expected delivery will likely be two weeks from the date we submit the files for your work. We will be shooting on RED MX.

We have a budget of three-hundred dollars, please respond if you are able to provide the work within this range. Thank you!

Respectfully,
Stefan Anderson
