Coffee break

Contribution to Motion-café contest

To celebrate its 2nd anniversary, the website motion-café.com organized a contest as a collective project. Everyone was invited to make a short animation starting and ending with a common frame. I chose to illustrate a typical day of a motion designer where coffee breaks symbolize his different moods, from morning to evening.

I used shapes inspired by Kandinsky's painting to express the emotions: soft and energetic shapes for the morning, then aggressive and oppressive shapes for the evening. The coffee is made in traditional animation making it the main element in the compositions.
