While I was waiting for the drone to be finished I moved onto a few other effects that I was going to leave until later. From the tests I did much earlier in the project, I had decided on the way I wanted the bionic eye to look. I created the graphic circles and animated them spinning around. I was mindful to make sure they looked like they were doing something rather than just aimlessly spinning.
I did many colour tests and after getting some feedback, decided on somewhere between blue and teal. Now this effect is very easily copied to other shots where the bionic eye is visible. However unless it is a closer shot, I won't bother with all the detail, I'll just have the glow and lens flare as you wouldn't be able to see the spinning circles in wide shots anyway. This will be a low priority effect though, I am focusing on everything that tells the story first then coming back to these additional things for the non critical shots.
