I made the 3D logo in Cinema 4D and then brought it into After Effects for the particle system (the fizz). I really enjoyed creating that part, not to mention I had a great excuse to go flying. Thanks to Eric for filming that launch. I used the Canon 7D for both shots, drinking the dew and the foot launch, which was in the 720p 60fps mode so I could slow it down enough. (And that’s Scott in the background: “Nice…”)
