I did a 20 episode video series in 2019-2020 where I recapped 5 CNN or BBC headlines from the previous week using only footage from pre-1925 movies as if they were broadcast using a parallel technology from the 1920s that used the primal element aether instead of radio waves to transmit sound and images (like you do). Mostly it was a chance to work with motion graphics and old movies to balance the corporate work that paid the bills.

As a #graphics nerd, and having worked for a few years with the folks who designed this, I feel like I’m entitled to an opinion. And my opinion is that I don’t mind this look for rollouts or title cards, but for the permanent scorebug I feel it’s a bit “much”. I’m not knocking it! It’s fun! But it’s huge.

Outlined text saying "RETROCOM" glide up from the bottom of the screen, leaving multi-colored trails. As the title settles in the center of the screen, the text is filled in white.

Afternoon mograph. Less a finished project than a proof of concept. I caught a tutorial from Simon 3D on YouTube that did this kind of effect with physics and dynamic paint, and I wanted to see if I could rig it up with just Geometry Nodes. The biggest obstacle to better results is just that my system was already choking on this much detail.

Late night mograph. This took a bunch of compression to get down to posting size. Pretty happy with the results overall.

I had a minor freakout, because at one point, the animation wasn't lining up anymore, and it turns out I'd changed a setting on the wrong node cuz it's late and I'm punchy.
#Blender3D #B3D #MotionGraphics #Mograph #MartianGraphics

Tiny spheres spin in a swarm, and come together to form a five, which glows. Then they expand back out, and form a 4, then a 3, then a 2, then a 1. Then it loops, because I had no exit strategy.

Does anyone know of any communities or online spaces where freelancers can share advice about their craft and support one another? I'm planning on switching from full-time employment to freelance (in motion graphics) and I am interested in making connections with other freelancers in this field, mainly so it feels a bit less daunting and lonely!

Boosts appreciated!

Evening mograph. Figuring out the workflow for using the #MartianGraphics sequencer with text. It's not entirely straightforward, which means I should probably look to automate it... and I hit a roadblock that made me throw away like 45 minutes of work. Yay.

I think most versions of this effect, the letters all spin the same number of times.

For years I've told myself to just stick to After Effects and not to bother with Blender. Everything in #B3D always took so much longer than I anticipated, and the render times, my goodness!
But I'm about to finish up a project with it that I challenged myself to do. It had fluid simulation, character rigging, and was a lot of fun. Maybe I'll keep diving deeper with it.

Afternoon mograph. Another in my series of "trying in some way to visualize gravitation" series. To get the rotation, I'm offsetting the points a little from their initial position, taking a cross product of their current position and initial position for the rotation axis, then increasing rotation as they move out from the center. I probably should have used their loop factor instead of length, but I digress.

Tutorial time! Tonight, I'm covering basic use of the #MartianGraphics TimeStep system, which is my method for making trails (without simulation). This will also cover the two main animation nodes in the pack, Animator and Sine Loop. The result will be something similar to the animation below.

Let's get goin!
#Blender3D #B3D #Mograph #MotionGraphics
Thread/

A roughly spherical cluster of lines curve in toward the center and back out. Each one is made of tiny little spheres. It's pretty and kinda hypnotic.

🧵 I animated this sequence for a video about American gun violence. 200 red dots represent gun homicides and assaults per day (2006-2014). The dots turn into molecular structures as the narration goes on to discuss insights that could be gleaned by looking at this violence the way public health examines infectious disease epidemics.

#️⃣ #animation #motiondesign #motiongraphics #mastoart #blender #analysis #dataviz #infographic #visualization #design #b3d #blender3d

A handgun on a red circular background goes off, and then the graphic shrinks into a tiny red dot that is joined by a grid of additional red dots. Some of the dots then turn into molecular structures, and some of those structures get scanned by some kind of auto-focus technology.

🧵 For this one, I illustrated the psychological impacts of different types of crimes (according to an English study) using ripples. Perhaps predictably, local crimes like car thefts have a strong immediate impact, but don't affect the wider community that much long term. Meanwhile, something like a terrorist attack can have a smaller immediate impact for someone not involved or nearby, but the impact lingers and spreads.

#️⃣ #animation #motiondesign #mograph #motiongraphics #mastoart #blender

Many black tiles with infographic icons disappear, but three remain and flip over to a blank side and into a perspective view. Then red dots fall into the tiles one by one like drops of water, and leading to ripples and red color indicating the impact of crimes and the reverberating psychological effects.
