Fun with GIFs
Do we need a subtitle?
Showing action and transformation can often times be important in the design process. In developing concepts for several client projects, the Widgets & Stone created animate GIFs to show either interaction or transformation.
The first design shown here is an invitation concept meant to animate, going from the date 1916 to 2016, with 2 complete different styles. The die cut envelope would both hide and reveal as the invitation is withdrawn, making it a form of “manual animation.”
The second design is part of a layering process of posters designed to emulate the natural layering (and decay) of billboards in a city.
Designers: Travis Hitchcock, Mark Slawson, Liz Tapp.
