Volcanic growth

Before we begin,  a brief bit of inspiration.

I took my handy dandy lazy Susan and fount eh center. I plotted out radial lines to break the circle into sections. This way I can rotate as I take frames giving the appearance of a circular camera move when I add it to the composition. It is a lot more work but it seems easier than building a rig to move the camera and background in this case.

Here is the view from outside the space, looking in. The volcano grew in 300+ frames out of the plasticine I made at home. Recipe here: http://artistavision.blogspot.ca/2013/02/plasticine-recipe.html

 Here is the comp of the volca with the chroma keyed out with the background and mist composited together.
