    Developing directions for the marketing and visual style of an internal, firmwide technology learning program. These are just some rough animations I made to show how they might come to life. These are just one element of a whole suite of deliverables I roughed out, but I thought they were fun to share.

    They already picked a direction. Can you guess which one?

    • Top one is tasty but the middle one reads fast. I’m guessing they went with the bottom since it looks like it may be more work?scarabin
    • bingo :)monospaced
    • hmm got the weirdest nostalgia feeling with the first one :Dsted

    • The middle one is interesting, playing with perspective. The other 2 versions are crap ofcgrafician
    • 3, brain thingy is cute.uan
    • ofc?monospaced
    • 1, ok
      2 is really inspiring. I bet if you had more time for experimenting and developing that concept, it would beat 3.

    • The idea with 3 was that I could "build" different 3D "areas" and display them like this, depending on the topic. Topics are limitless.monospaced
    • I mean, that was the idea with 2. Some could be complex, some very zoomed in and simple.monospaced
    • I'd add the element of typography. mix 3D rotations with 2D stretches to form letters.
      and use the letters to form words (topics or claims).

    • I'll keep it in my back pocket for another day :) Thanks.monospaced
    • ofc sure, 1 looks like 2000 called, the 3rd one is a bunch of stock icons thrown together.
      2/middle is top! With lots of room to grow

    • Nothing is stock. Fuck off.monospaced
    • Don’t you have an agency or two to run?monospaced
    • Stop being defensive, take a step back, look at these and you'll know I'm right.
      Team choosing 3rd = op missed :(

    • Remember while bashing each other that design is a process and this thread is dedicated to work in an unfinished statescarabin
    • you're not right, grafmonospaced
    • Yeah sorry, not even dissing or anything, these are the icons style in 3rd option: https://creativemark…grafician
    • they are notmonospaced
    • just saying 2nd option the strongest, already can see dozen ways to extend that into anything from print to webgrafician
    • that is very different from what you said originally, and i hope you don't give feedback like this to your agency's designersmonospaced
    • I dig these. Although cute, I keep getting stuck on the beakers at leftmisterhow
    • lol I said 2nd option is interesting, 1 and 3 are crap, still stand by it

      Anyway shut up, post more stuff
      I'll post tomorrow too

    • I like the middle one, the animation is bonus. Cheers for posting here, I appreciate it.PhanLo
    • nice mono. a good, diverse group to choose from. #2 is the most intriguing imo, but #3 looks fun.bezoar
    • Thanks.monospaced
    • nice mono, looks like you had some fun.utopian
    • Pains me to say it, but I am with Graf on this. 2nd one is cool af and has loads of potential.scruffics
    • I’m okay with that, but he called the other two “crap” and implied it was stock illustration. :)monospaced
    • Yeah, I am not so sure about that choice of words.scruffics
    • I like the 2nd one too. That’s why I designed it haha.monospaced
    • Nice work man, 2 is a lovely approach!pedromendez
    • Good work, Mono!

    • Thanks!monospaced
    • Nice. How did you do the animations, mono?Fax_Benson
    • Illustrator artboards to Photoshop for 1 and 3. I used SketchUp for 2.monospaced
    • I love that second one. It would be very cool to create some icons in that flat state and have them become the landscape you see in perspective.CyBrainX
    • graf can go fuck himself ofc, or show some workmonospaced
