Doppelganger | 2023 | 1920 x 1080 | Video
In my advanced video editing class, I embarked on creating the video "Doppelganger" harnessing the capabilities of Blender, Photoshop, and After Effects. Which draws inspiration from the captivating mythology surrounding the unsettling experience of encountering one's eerie counterpart. This phenomenon, where our image disrupts our sense of individuality and uniqueness, provokes profound existential inquiries about the fluidity of self and identity. It is rooted in the ancient belief that the sighting of a doppelganger foreshadows grave health concerns, dire misfortune, or impending bad luck. These apparitions function as cautionary omens, often interpreted as harbingers of imminent demise. Traditional folklore consistently warned individuals against engaging or communicating with their doppelgangers, attributing them with malicious intentions and malevolent nature. Numerous accounts testify that these enigmatic doubles attempted to offer guidance, only to deliver consistently deceptive and misleading counsel.
