[ poly art exploration ]January 2019
After admiring the polygon art style for years, I decided that I would try my hand at this art style. My style evolved after exploring different strategies, but I must say that the geometry nerd in me is really excited about creating in this overall style. The sea creature series is based of some pencil character sketches I did a few years ago. |

[ animated. ]February 2019 // Since this was the first time any of my fish sketches were in a digital format, I wanted to explore animating one of them using After Effects. Mr. Big Lips was the simplest of the collection, so he was the one to be brought to life. The speed of the animation might be a little slow, but I'm pleased with the overall effect I was able to create.

Symmetry x 6February 2019 // The expressions behind Symmetry x 4 were a little more straightforward to figure out than this one. I tried several different strategies to get degree-based relationships to work correctly. It took a little bit of tinkering and head-scratching. With the added challenge of wanting to control the shapes in 3D, I am delighted at what I was able to wire up on this one. Take that quirky After Effects!

Symmetry x 4February 2019 // The first geometric art animation I completed in After Effects. After learning how to control shapes with individual points of a shape for the Curling Fish animation, I wanted to explore that control with only geometric goals (not trying to make sure it still looked like a fish. ) After figuring out and wiring up the expressions, it was exciting to see the how many different effects I could create.
