    Amazing visuals and great expressionistic style. This has an intensity that I had forgotten. Where you alive when MTV was a thing? This feels like that crazy time of discovery https://lnkd.in/dCPHj_8s

    Representing diversity is VERY important. Our young students tend to have very narrow ideas about representation and naturally they go from themselves and their subculture to maybe a couple of steps outside. We need to encourage images and characters that expand the vision of ourselves. This is not easy because there is also a lot of repression when representing cultures and identities that are not ours. We need to work more on observing, on collaborating with people that are different from us and to encourage true artistry in this field. https://lnkd.in/gC2R92zJ

    The Future is Inclusive. Make it BIEN.

    Isn't on-screen representation in motion design easy? You just use different skin tones and now you're inclusive. No... it's not that simple. See how we do it in this BTS video. Watch this behind-the-scenes breakdown to see: - 6 versions of Rayne - 12 versions of Aaliyah - Ethnographic research - Anthropologic research - Deep attention and respect for cultural and societal cues.

    This is a golden rule: a working space has to be joyful. Unless you put a lot of effort and talent, cubicles (and most computer rooms) are NOT joyful. We are trying to change this at Media Arts. https://lnkd.in/diDR5v24

    Look at how much emotion you can trigger with the Motion Graphics language. Perfect activation of the whole Stage and great transformations: it keeps us glued to the screen. This artist uses the best of the 2 worlds: analog and digital. https://lnkd.in/gGUh-jGZ

    Rendering is that delicate step where things either emanate some magic or they stay behind as raw silicon. It takes artistic sensibility with color and chiaroscuro, a sense of visual storytelling to thread the elements naturally, and a lot of inspiration: this one has it all. https://lnkd.in/gU4AdieJ

    At a moment when I almost gave up on 3D graphics entirely, I created this render. It was a pivotal time that taught me a valuable lesson: the only time you truly fail is when you quit. This 3D interior render of a kitchen is more than just a project; it's a story of resilience and passion. Tips on how I achieved this result in the comment section #blender #blendercycles #3d #storytelling

    Great posing! That is indeed a very natural but difficult pose. Great result https://lnkd.in/gW4EUC-A

    Perfect Squat ! A difficult pose to achieve in 3D. Often rigs struggle to bend the knee more than 90 degrees producing intersections, loss of volume, pointy kneecap and other weirdness. There are many approaches to solve that issue, mine was to use corrective joints and also separate the upper and lower legbones the more the knee bends. That preserves at least a semblance of anatomy. This rig will be available soon on my gumroad. More to come :)

    Great evolutions and sense of composition through the stage. All the surface of the screen is utilized and see see the energy expand and dissipate in different ways, making us fill like all the screen is participating in the action. https://lnkd.in/gQmtFFwb
