From real brush to brand motion.
This logo animation started with physical ink and brushwork, then moved through digital refinement and motion design.
I wanted to preserve the irregular texture and natural movement of real ink rather than imitate it with a digital brush effect.
For me, the goal isn’t simply to make a brand look “Japanese.”
It’s to use handcrafted texture when it genuinely adds character and meaning to the identity.
Every project starts with understanding the brand first — the audience, the atmosphere, and where the final work will actually be used.
Available for custom logo animation and brand motion projects.
