Making waves with type and
animation. A GIF based on my static Orca Poster (seen below). In this animation, I aimed to convey the playful nature of orcas through dynamic animation and kinetic type. I created my animated assets seperately, then composed each frame in Illustrator: 74 frames total.
A static poster, though still
dynamic. I was assigned to select an animal native to the region I grew up in, then combine text and visuals to tell this animal’s story.
As a Seattle native, the Orca was an easy choice. In my design, I wanted to showcase the natural features of Pacific Northwest, as well as Orca’s playful, social nature. I created a dynamic scene of Orcas leaping from crashing waves, frolicking with their pod.
