For the AR project, we decided to animate ingredients warming up from the cold in a Chinese-style hot pot.
Final AR hot pot party gif
As a group we each drew hotpot ingredients that we liked to eat :)
Afterwards, they were exported as png assets from the Procreate app on the iPad into After Effects. Lan animated each frame to form our hotpot party story.
Using the wall as a marker.
In the video, the mushroom comes out from the fridge, sees its friends bathing in the hot pot soup, and decides to join them.

Aero was surprisingly easy to use! The most time-consuming work was done in After Effects.
