Animation - Shape Rainbow

'Shape Rainbow - A film in 16 sections by 2nd-year BA Graphic Design Communication students at Chelsea College of Art and Design, made in response to a brief by animation artist Max Hattler.'


This is my group's section of the film, which shows a transition from dark blue to violet, and triangles to lines. The film was made by close-up filming particles of icing sugar in the air against a bright light. We made a lens hood with a small triangle cut into it, this changed the aperture shape, giving the triangular effect that is seen in the first half of the film. We then animated individual triangles using After Effects, to make them remain in shot for longer and control direction/colour etc. 

The entire film will be up soon!
