Story of a father finding a balance between the time he spends on work and the time he spends with his daughter. Some frames explore balance as a principle of design.
A video montage of examples of variety as a principle of design. Variety explores multiple differences in color, texture, shape, size, etc. (and
instruments, in this case).
I decided to create a frame by frame animation on photoshop. Another student in the class got the OK to do this instead of creating the shapes in Adobe Illustrator, and I felt that I could produce a higher quality animation in a faster amount of time by doing this.
VISUAL + TACTILE TEXTURE COMBINATION: The visual texture reminded me of stone and ancient patterns like those of the mayans or aztecs. So I used the visual texture of the metal starfish ring to create a kirigami temple.
