witness the birth of the new overwatch hero, sigma. being the offspring of jeff the bee and a strange flower, sigma is unaffected by gravity and wonders why everyone else is stuck on the ground. because of this, he dedicates his life to research this strange force that he does not understand.

I got the idea to make Jeff the bee when I made Introducing Ganondorf and heard Jeff saying "thisisa" and it sounded like an insect’s wings buzzing. Now I picked it from my list of 2fideo ideas and added that Jeff the bee must collect honey (stolen from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqM904nX9Fw) and then creates Sigma.

This fideo took 2 days longer to make than expected because I had to figure out how to put the Jeff face on B.Va in Resolve. I have to learn how to do this anyway, so this was a great way to practise it. The tracking features of Resolve are amazing but properly putting that information on an overlay image is apparently not easy. With full 3D tracking from the colour tab, the image moved too fast, like the speed was being increased by 1.25 but otherwise it was perfect. I spent hours trying to solve this but was unsuccessful. In the fusion tab using the tracking node I could track B.Va’s face in 3D as well but the Overlay is being put on with its edges placed on the tracking points, so it’s very distorted and I found no way of keeping the aspect ratio of the overlay image and just moving, zooming and tilting it. The only other way i found was to use the tracking node with just one tracking point so it tracks the position two-dimensionally. Now I still have to apply rotation and zoom manually like in Video deluxe and when the tracked object moves out of screen, it’s still annoying (and hard for complicated movements) to manually track the movement off the screen.
