Demo 2025
Studio Dumbar’s Demo Festival is the largest motion design festival in the world. I promised myself I would submit something when they ran again in 2025. Out of nearly 2000 designers who submitted over 5400 motion pieces I was so chuffed to make the cut of 360 designers that featured.
Of the five motion samples I submitted, one was selected:
Skew Bounce
This is the video that featured in Demo 2025. It was inspired by a sketch I saw on Instagram by @omran_mezher. I tried to personify the shapes movement.
See it in action below:
Fuel emissions
When I first heard one of my videos was selected, I actually assumed this was it. Shout-out here to a friend of mine, Kris Stirna. Honestly, my favourite design decisions in this project are Kris's suggestions.
False Depth
A happy accident when playing with the shapes created when a line rotates around an endpoint while travelling around the path of a circle. The silly shit that I can spend hours with.
Stadium lights
Inspired by the light show in Stade de France rugby stadium before a world cup game.
Perspective grid
I don’t remember what triggered this one, but I know I made it about an hour before the deadline to submit my videos. I think I just wanted to play with the (new at the time) 2.5d features in Cavalry.
