Mo-Graph, as they say

Recently at work I got to take a little break from web app massaging for a fun Flash animation project.  It’s basically just a little movie that shows people how to use Facebook Connect in the Wacom Community site (which eROI designed and built).  I had the pleasure of working with one of eROI’s awesome designers, Andy Hugelier, who put together some great visuals and had some fun ideas for how everything should move.  Working off his storyboards I put everything together with some basic timeline-based animation in Flash.  It was super fun and kind of gave me the animation bug again.  Though it might not seem as though this type of animation is similar to character animation, you use a lot of the same principles in motion graphics that you do with making characters move (squash & stretch, follow-through, exaggeration, timing).

So, anyhoo, it’s up right now on the Wacom Community homepage. Woowoo!

eROI has done a bunch of other cool projects for Wacom, too, including: Power of the Pens and the Bamboo Touch microsite.
