Derek Lieu – Editor » 25 Simple Tricks for Better Motion Graphics I’m an editor by trade, not a motion designer which means I wish I wasn’t the one writing this article or the one who made the video, because I know there are more qualified artists out there. I make gradual improvements to my After Effects skills, but I don’t feel comfortable selling myself exclusively as a motion graphics artist. That said, I think more lists like this should exist especially for people just getting started in motion graphics. This is a collection of techniques that I noticed overlap in a lot of video tutorials that I’ve watched over the years. This isn’t the be all and end all guide BY FAR, nor is this intended as a full tutorial. As with anything, how you artistically use these is what ultimately makes your graphics look good. I’m writing this for the beginners just starting out, seasoned vets will look at this and say “Yup, pretty much” but not get much else out of it.

Top 10 des Motion designer français HomeAll / Inspiration / La sélection de...La sélection de Motion Designer Français jan 17 2012 by Kola 11 Comments Esprit chauvin nous voici ! Bon, vous l’aviez vu venir à 1000km, l’admiration sans borne que je voue au talent Pierre Magnol est bien connue de tout ceux qui suivent le blog, vu que vous trouverez ces travaux éparpillés un peu partout au fil des post. Mister Gü, alias Gunther Gheeraert, c’est avant tout une veste verte bien connue sur le web, et un talent pluridisciplinaire qui s’étale de l’animation 2D/3D jusqu’à la prise de vue. Très beau reel que celui de Thomas Heckel, dont la 3D propre et efficace lui fait largement mériter sa place dans cette sélection. En plus d’être une drogue bien connu, surtout quand elle est au parfum « Cookie Dough », IceCream est aussi un pseudo correspondant en tout point à l’univers acidulé de Nicolas Dufour. Motion designer de talent, Romain Loubersanes est un excellent photographe, dont je vous conseille vivement de visiter le Tumblr.

Diseño Audiovisual: Motion Graphics y 3D - Postgrado - IDEP Idep Hoy en día no se puede entender la comunicación gráfica sin tener en cuenta su vertiente audiovisual o motion graphics. Se trata de un territorio en alza dentro del diseño gráfico del cual se alimentan el cine y la televisión, pero que también resulta imprescindible para cualquier tipo de proyecto que quiera aprovechar el potencial del medio audiovisual, un medio que requiere de soluciones que vayan más allá de las propuestas gráficas estáticas para aportar valor añadido. Resulta indispensable tener presente el factor tiempo y el movimiento en la pantalla como parte fundamental del proceso creativo. Ser capaz, además, de crear recursos 3D para estas piezas es un plus que permite aplicar soluciones novedosas que dan como resultado imágenes increíbles u objetos imposibles en escenarios completamente reales. Objetivos Posibles Itinerarios Curriculares . Dirigido a Acceso y Titulación Postgrado: Acceso con titulación universitaria (licenciatura, grado o graduado) y proceso de selección interno.

How to enhance 3d renders with 2d elements When i first started out with architectural visualization i was very strict about doing it 3d all the way, but today almost every image i create incorporates some 2d techniques applied in post using software such as photoshop. sometimes i add elements i didn’t have time to create in 3d or forgot about them. Other times i plan before hand on adding those elements and save time this way – especially if I’m not sure the client will approve them and this way i can just hide the layers. the technique I’ll describe in this post is especially useful and easy to apply in single focal point images. I’ll use the HO House image for the demonstration and below you can see the original render before the addition of 2d elements and the after image with those elements marked. After the break i will elaborate further on how I’ve added each of those elements. Render without the 2d elements Added 2d elements Adding the TV steps Adding some dark glow effect too Adding the center piece steps
