White Space Animation
Group project with Chris Gonzalez
Overview
Type rules are established to provide structure and continuity to areas involving typography. Through this animation, I examined the typography tool, "White Space" to guide the message and visuals of this riso-printed frame animation. I hoped to test the use of gradients and the mesh tool in Illustrator to create unique designs that encompass white space and its importance as a tool within typography and design.
Process
With my partner, Chris Gonzalez, we concepted the importance of white space and what it is to us. We wanted to display it as a tool to design that is clean, classy, organizational, and an important design tool. Through this animation, we experimented with gradients and using elements to represent white space and its vital use as a design tool. We experimented and created movement with the gradient to display white space as something fluid and adaptive to different layouts. Individually, we created 96 frames and printed them on the Riso printer using red and yellow. We then scanned each print and stitched them together to create a frame animation in After Effects.
