Typography Motion Graphics Animation in After Effects

September 10, 2020September 17, 2020 | Uncle Skuby

As I was examining my Graphic Design Portfolio website, I had determined that I needed something on my home page that showcased my Motion Graphics skills. I had done a bit of searching and found a couple artists on Behanced that had nice Typography Animated Gifs that I was inspired by.

Below are images that I aspire to replicate to add that extra motion I needed on my website:

Andrei Robu - Moving Poster Series - Animated Gif — Andrei Robu – Moving Poster Series – Animated Gif

To begin learning this Typography Animation technique I found a tutorial on YouTube by a Motion Graphics artist that goes by the name of Dope Motions. This was a perfect project to experiment with After Effects and 3D text elements.

Finally here was interpretation of an Animated Gif with Typography. I will continue to experiment with this form of Motion Graphics, what I would like to try is create a highly polished Adobe Illustrator text element and then bring it into Adobe After Effects to add the extra motions desired for an even deeper distortion effect.

Creative Graphic Design Resumes | Along with my NEW Resume Re-design | by Evan Munoz

January 20, 2014November 19, 2016 | Uncle Skuby

As creative professionals, everything we do has to be creative in someway! At least that is how I feel, so why not dress up your resume? After all as designers, isn’t our job to organize data in a more visually pleasing manor? With that being said I found an article on inspirationfeed.com that inspired me to Re-design my resume to make it look like a designer created it. What do you guys think about this topic? Should designers keep a standard resume or a more graphic oriented resume?

Andddddd as promised here is my take on this topic. Please let me know what you think! Would you hire me if you saw this?
