Animation Inspiration

05.08.2017 by Hayley Rollason //

AnimationInspiration480

Following a recent Instagram Story looking at resources for where to find animation inspiration, I figured I’d put together a blog post listing the resources and some notes about how they are helpful. This is a live post and grow as we look at more inspiration resources.

  • Vimeo in general
    • An incredible collection of work, it is very easy to find inspiration for a wide range of creative styles.
    • Check out the categories and subcategories to narrow down what you are looking for as it can be overwhelming the amount of talent that exists on Vimeo
    • There is a lot of art and commercial work on here which means you will almost definitely find something you like
  • Dribbble in general
    • A hub for designers and animators to display their work
    • Look for shots labeled “gif” to see some motion
    • Any moving shots on here will be very short form
    • Given account access to this site is curated and invite-only the quality if outstanding
  • Instagram hashtag
    • Follow me 🙂
    • Since raising the video limit to 1 min this has been an incredible tool for animators and motion deisgners to showcase work and therefore a stellar resource for inspiration
    • Given the open and wide reach of instagram it also means there is some searching through to find the REALLY good stuff
    • Some hashtag recomendations include:
      • #mograph – Standing for MO-tion GRAPH-ics, this is much more of an industry term and therefore tends to be professionals showcasing their work. It has a great mix of 3D, 2D, character and experimental work
      • #motiongraphics – This is a bit busier of a hashtag but also full of gems. There will be overlap with the mograph hashtag.
      • #animation – This one is a total mixed bag, its busy and messy, with some posts that are completely unrelated being tagged. However, the term animation can bring out different styles of work to those under #mograph and #motiongraphics.

Day 10 – Spin Down

01.31.2017 by Hayley Rollason //

I made it! Day 10!!! What’s 15 x 10? That is how many minutes I have spent on this #15minmograph challenge.

This week Ryan Plummer (the originator of the challenge) suggested focussing on patterns, so I did. I only had 10 mins realistically today so I kept it simple and tried to build the pattern on it a way that draws the down the image, by offsetting and cascading the motion. It is simple and clean but I like it.

Day 9 – Offset Trap

01.30.2017 by Hayley Rollason //

This time I was inspired by fellow members of the School of Motion Alumni group. At this stage, 3 members have tackled the offset stroke look for their #15minmograph submissions and it works so well. With little effort, you can stylise your design and amp up your follow-through animation.

On top of that, it was nice to get back to bounces and then, inspired by the fact that the last few submissions have ignored the resolution restriction, I played with the space itself, the barriers of the 1000×1000 square forming the barriers of the trap.

She brings to any project both her creative editing & graphic design but also an organisational and project management rigour that we value very highly. She takes the time to understand the content and delivers within our, sometimes tight, schedules.

She helped visualise exactly what I wanted and even though we were in 2 different states, working with her was seamless.
