starry – LoopResearch

I thought the gif of the MTV logo was successful because even though there were a lot of brightly colored shapes moving in different directions, the artist was able to keep the attention at the center. I also like how there are a mix of individual parts that are looping (ex. The blue triangles) as well as hand-drawn animations.

I really like how surreal this gif feels because of the combination of complicated and simple forms, as well as the variety of textures (grass, stone leaves); the color palette is pretty cohesive as well. I also like the tension between the swinging pillars and the intricate statues and I think the looping aspect is pretty successful at maintaining such a feeling.

I like the simplicity and quietness of this project, and was especially drawn to the colors and circular composition which helps it feel stable and complete. I also like how can evoke contrasting imagery because of how abstract it is, since I thought both of the phases of the moon as well as eyeballs without pupils.
