Dani Delgado- Looking Outwards-1

Gustavo Torres, also known as Kidmograph, is an Argentinian art director, motion designer and illustrator who focuses on creating interesting motion graphics using the already existing software. This artist uploads their work onto their websites and social media pages roughly every three days, leading me to believe that each graphic takes about two days or so to design.  I’m constantly inspired how Torres uses coding and animation software to create such vibrant images, especially at such a rate.

Many of these projects create worlds that are so surreal that they are only accessible through the digital realm, which I believe is quite the feat. As I am an artist that has primarily been exposed to traditional means, for him to be able to consistently create digital work which could not be reproduced in the physical world by any means is very admirable. His work is part of the reason why I wished to take 15-104 and start to learn at least the basics of coding.

Friendly reminder about my Skillshare class I did last year. Motion Graphics in Cinema 4D: Design an 80s-Inspired Animated GIF Link in bio January is a special month in Skillshare, and if you're willing to learn how I do most of my GIFs, you should definitely take this class. I cover the principles of building a scene in Cinema4D, then we go to AfterEffects to add some nice effects and post, and finally exporting the GIF optimized in Photoshop for social media/blogs like my Tumblr. The target is young (or not) people who wants to start doing regular content without being frustrated by the software. I did this course mostly from the side of a daily user, and lover of what I do. And I thought it would be a great opportunity to show how I do the things I do 🙂 #skillshare #course #kidmograph #retrofuture #cyberpunk #lofi #animation #design #cinema4d #aftereffects #photoshop #motiongraphics #mograph #art #newyear #gif

The artist started working with traditional means before moving his work to digital realm and since has worked with many large brands such as Adidas, Lolapalluza, and Paramount Pictures to create animations and graphic designs. His work was probably inspired by the psychedelic movements of the 70s and the current music scene which emphasizes originality and outlandish visuals.

While the programs he uses are not customized for him, I believe that such an artist can heavily influence the aesthetics of future designers and artists that have seen his work used by many popular companies.
