So I have been in photoshop more than After Effects lately, so the other day I did a quick tutorial on Youtube by Acrez, and this is the result. It was a Bouncing text kinda thing, and I threw some fun particles in the background. Enjoy.

Fishy
By Colin in Graphic Design, IllustrationI created this fish the other night. Haven’t really made anything in a while so this was fun! I want to explore more vector animals I believe. For this one I was just in Illustrator, which you can see in the original vector art image. Then I ported the sucker over the photoshop where I applied some quick texture-age. Enjoy the behind the scenes stuff-age.

Monsoon Logo Animation: no sound
By Colin in AnimationsThis is an animated logo I have been working on today for the Monsoon Communications team.
I will be adding some sound to this later, like some “blippy” sounds for the little balls when they come in, etc.
Let me know of any suggestions or ideas you have about what would be a good sound effect to pair with this. Links are nice!
