Motion Graphics - Short Animations
A selection of short animations I created while learning how to use Adobe Animate. I started out with an idea, then illustrated each element, created a tune in GarageBand and exported the videos for Youtube and Instagram. A fun, creative and eye-catching way to tell stories.
Ball vs Birds
I had to start learning somehow, so I tried to come up with some simple story ideas. This was my second animation. In this animation, I wanted to learn how to animate walking and adding music.
Broadcity.
Mike Perry’s animations at the beginning of each Broadcity episode stuck with me. So when I was learning how to animate, I kept those shorts in the back of my mind.
I also enjoyed pairing the animation to music using Garageband’s loops. At this point, I’m still learning how to work more efficiently.
Sunshine
Every time I worked on a new animation, I learned something new and exciting. At the end of this one, my daughter added her own bit, which I think adds so much to the short animation.
Fernie Nordic Society.
After a while, I decided to use my new skills for good. Over December I created a new animation inspired by a local organization or non-profit. This one was for the Fernie Nordic Society because I think they do a lot for this little community.
Meditation
This animation was for the love of frame by frame animation - just to see where we ended up. There was no plan, just to have fun…using one colour.
