Minimal Kinetic Spiral — 3D Motion Study

Prototyping with real-world scenarios, even fictional ones, is one of the best ways to sharpen skills, so here's a "client-style" exercise: a website hero animation.
Keeping motion clean in hero sections is trickier than it looks. Every bit of movement needs to earn its place, or it just competes for attention instead of drawing people in.
This is a mockup solar flower hero, built and rendered in Blender using Eevee for fast real-time iteration. The animation itself is intentionally simple and the real focus here was on the rigging setup driving it.

Testing out some variants of Blender’s new built‑in materials. Making something pretty feels almost effortless right now!

Pushed motion blur to the extreme on this one to give the cardboard tube mockup a punchy, kinetic feel rather than a static product shot. Built and rendered entirely in Blender, using exaggerated blur to show motion while keeping the packaging design legible.
