Swipe for the full thing, and more bits✌️👉 2 years ago we made this spot for @madhive_tech , the leading software platform engineered for modern TV advertising. The animators had to ditch their smooth wavy curves and dig into their bag of hold frames ⬜ Really impressed with everyone's ability to quickly grasp the motion style so coherently and smash these scenes 👌👏 _________________________________________ Made @buck_design with this lot 👇 Exectuive Creative Director Vincent Lammers Executive Producer Chance Woodward Creative Director @ward_graumans @richardthegray Producer @bascatolini Production Coordinator @goldbe972 Animation Director Me Art Director @est.richter 3D Lead João Rema Design @berndbousard @est.richter @jerbosmans @rasmusstenbergh @abramova.yanka 3D Animation João Rema @sonaljadhav_ Animation @cherry.visuals @filipeconsoni.motion @jonaselsgaard @pvonborries Global Head of Post Production Paal Rui Edit Daniel Silveira Music & Sound Design @antfood.music #animation #motiongraphics #aftereffects #design #mgcollective #motionmate #motiondesign #branding #mograph

A few of us @buck_design recently threw together an identity for Playgrounds & their latest festival 'In Motion', which celebrates all things moving image. Whether its stop motion, 3D, VFX, film or techy AI jazzy collage stuff, In Motion has it 🎥 Split into 2 phases, we had 2 weeks to get the core concept, logo & brand guidelines together. Playground's internal team then used this to build out their social campaign in parallel to us kicking off with the animated visuals across the Outernet space in London. I've added a small batch of finals & explorations here, and can't speak as much to the overall concept & construction as I'd like to, but hopefully there'll be a full overview at Buck.co soon! -------------------------------------------- Edited credits with tags now!

2 years ago, we collaborated with Peter Ramsey, H.E.R and @netflix on “Active Citizenship”, the first episode in a Schoolhouse Rock-inspired musical anthology series from Chris Nee and Kenya Barris entitled "We The People". 2 hours ago, I found out the series took home an Emmy for "Outstanding Short Form Program" which is pretty mad! Such an incredibly special project to be part of. Here I've included a shorter reel, along with some other bits, but head to Netflix to see the full thing along with all the other episodes! ------------------------- What a ridiculous team @buck_design !🔥 Creative Director Steve Day Associate Creative Director Janice Ahn Senior Producer Justin Harris Animation Directors Jake Armstrong Joe Brooks Art Director Sol Lee Associate Producer Erin Lockard Global Head of Design Brian Won Global Head of 2D Animation Daniel Coutinho Design Bruna Imai Colin Bigelow Dan Muangprasert Daniel Amdemichael Debora Cruchon Fabrizio Lenci Janice Ahn Jigyu Yoon Jonas Mosesson Julia Mattos Lina Yu Sol Lee Sung Hyun Kim Tony Legato Tuo Kan 2D Animation Taylor Griggs Lisa Kim Dries Van Broeck Gonzalo Menevichian Joe Brooks Ben Hill Cel Animation Alexander Bernas Ivan Dixon Jake Armstrong Junyi Xiao Lumi Chang Matthias Cuciniello Olivia Blanc Ryoko Kondo Stephen Loveluck #animation #illustration #netflix #emmy #emmyawards

Ah this is late - About a year ago a bunch of us @buck_design started chipping away at the titles for @weareplaygrounds festival. Here's some slides showing a comparison of the super early animatic/roughs vs final result. The animatic stage is all about speed, efficiency & getting the overarching ideas & timing locked in. Keep it as rough as possible (my lack of drawing skills gave me no option✔️) so you can whiz through many iterations of different ideas. It's tempting, but early finessing is the number 1 deadline killer* Neeever underestimate the importance of the animatic stage! * It probably isn't, just adding drama. This was genuinely a super tight one to pull off in the timeline, given all the different approaches/styles/artists involved. Absolute chaos! But we got there!

Nice to be a little less precious now and then.. so here's a few miscellaneous tests I did for a recent project I might talk more about another time. Experimenting with a sort of realtime/responsive motion in the way the objects / camera shifts around. There's a mix of AE, Cavalry and EB Synth in there. #animation #aftereffects #cavalryapp #motiongraphics #graphicdesign #motiongraphicscollective #motionmate #ebsynth

Anim Directed this tight little ident for @nianticlabs ! A fave from @buck_design Amsterdam last year, due to the incredible teamwork in tying all these beautifully wild scenes together.

My contribution to a set of little animations for Viacom's Guidelines on Mental Heath Storytelling. Each loop sat alongside a tip designed to empower and support content creators to change the narrative on mental health. These 4 we're illustrated by @falenci , @mijk.jpg & @abramova.yanka 👌 Shout out to the directors & all the designers for cooking up some wonderful concepts for us to work with. Lots more to see soon on Buck's site, where you'll find a bunch more animated by @romainloubersanes & @joelehuquet 💪 Direction: @richarddavidgray & @mark.land Producer: @marcelaferri #mentalhealth #animation #loop #illustration #photoshop #adobe #itsnicethat #motiongraphicscollective #motionmate
