Hands up for Say YES!

I completed this animated project weeks ago for Annual Giving NUS. It's hosted up on their website for a limited time at http://www.sayyes.nus.edu.sg/seasonsgreetings.shtml.

The requirement for this project was that I had to use animated gifs. Animated gif is cell by cell animation done in Photoshop. The files are low but only has a limit of 256 colours. Timing is of essence as the movement of the hands and the pauses have to feel natural. The concept is from its physical greeting card form which had to cover as many festivals during this time of year.

The tough part of the project was to create the shadows that flowed with the hands.

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

I got the "go" for two projects today...

One for NUS Annual Giving's holiday greeting card and e-card (whaddaya know? It's that most wonderful time of the year again); and the other a for a recruitment kit which includes a mini documentary for the la Salle Brothers. I'm looking forward to the two projects because of the creative freedom I have in them... at least for now. :O)

Annual Giving's Phonathon Calling Card is almost ready for print and I'm totally excited to see the final product.
