Framd Motions,
Is what become the concept for my senior project. A series of type centered animations, searching to frame the spirit and technique behind my design direction. By defining a few values, unison & sequence, convergence, peripheral view, a resonance and an essence. Within each animation, the defined value is expressed by the interaction of forms moving together or in response to an audio element. I selectively chose Alain Bellaïche’s Sea Fluorescent and Sun Blues as the soundtrack, for its rhythmic electronic quality paired with more instrumental sounds. The motion aspect utilized the use of expressions in after effects, in an attempt to remove the human hand from the motion. Primarily, the index property between multiple shapes, to weave a simple thread into the complexity of trying to animate a larger system of shapes. Comparative to the sensory characteristics of a person, in which they see, hear and interact with the world.
