Quick follow-up to yesterday’s post with a few refined details.

Tweaked the centerpiece and offset the rotational timing so each cube spins with its own momentum rather than in rigid sync. It gives the whole piece a much more tactile, kinetic feel.

Dusting off the feed with some fresh motion work!

I'm at the start of designing this kinetic ZENZAK Studio piece inspired by physical desk toys. Iterating in 3D is always the best way to experiment with materials and timing without real-world constraints.

Day 7 of 60-days-collecting-awesome-motion-design-references

I am gathering cool references for my own work as a Motion Designer.

It is hard to create videos solely based on text without falling into the monotonous and boring text animations we are all used to. So it takes something extra to make these types of videos as engaging as possible, and I think this example got it right!

I found it on LinkedIn, but I am not really sure what company created it, I just know that the ASCII look of the visuals and the use of gradients make it feel very techy and modern, and the soundtrack drives the motion very organically throughout. Definitely a keeper.
