Live 5 Super Doppler Max Promo

I recently posted an After Effects project I did using a camera with 3d layers. I liked the effect, so I did the same thing here on this 30 second promo and the result looked even better! The ‘Max’ logo was done in Zaxwerks 3d Invigorator Pro.

Opinions ranged from “who would waste their time using those?!” to “I just don’t think marketers have figured out how to use them yet.”
