This was an exercise for a Broadcast Graphics class at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. I wanted to get sort of a kaleidoscope made of oranges kind of feel. It is constructed from 3 pieces of artwork... an orange slice wedge, an orange slice, and a whole orange. I layered these together in After Effects and made pretty extensive use of AE Expressions to make it work without having to hand animate everything. (That would've been just about impossible!) All told, there are about 1000 layers in there with the virtual camera moving backward in z-space. It took about 6 1/2 hours to render.
