Animate our logo! #2BRL-CAD
Status: ClosedTime to complete: 100 hrs Mentors: Gauravjeet Singh, DishankTags: animation, 2D, logo, design, graphics

We have a logo inspired by interlocked nodes (like a bike chain). We'd like to see some concepts of how it might be animated. Use your creativity and make something we can either use on our website, or maybe even use as a "loading..." or progress bar animation.

Create 2D or 3D animated version of our logo. Submit an animated gif preview as well as any raw higher-resolution working files you used.

I'm thinking you misread which task you were completing.  You are supposed to submit an animation using the logo, not a rendering of the logo in BRL-CAD.


Good luck!

Sean on December 9 2014 06:35 UTCaep file?

VeskoD,


What is an AEP file?  Is that an Adobe Aftereffects file format?  If so, that'll work as a raw working format, but we'll still also need an animated gif and/or some other common animation format (avi, mpg, etc) so we can see what it looks like.

VeskoDon December 9 2014 08:10 UTCAEP file

yes, it is Adobe Aftereffects file format, i think i should do it that way.. so what do you want actually ? It works fine.

Gauravjeet Singh on December 9 2014 09:56 UTCUpload gif file too

Export this .aep file to .gif format, and upload it here.


As by this mentors who don't have this software (like me) can also review your work.

VeskoD,


Bouncing our logo around a box is not what we had in mind.  As the task description says, we're looking for something we can use on our website or in our application as a loading or busy indicator.  Notice how our logo looks like links of a chain, like on a bicycle.  We're hoping to see the links themselves be animated.

The deadline of the task has been extended with 2 days and 2 hours.

Sean on December 13 2014 07:39 UTCwhat is it?

VeskoD, I'm not sure what I'm even looking at in that animated gif...  I don't see how it incorporates our logo.  It kind of sort of looks like our logo massively distorted and blended with a loading progress bar... but not really.


Here's some examples of what was meant by animating our logo such that it looks like a progress bar:

Given our logo looks like a two interlocked chain link nodes, I kind of envisioned animations where the links are spinning around or additional links are getting added and removed while shifting, giving the impression of movement.
