  • In this video, I face off against Jake Barlett in Animation Combat, the ultimate motion graphics challenge. We each tackle a brief to create the best logo animation in 30 minutes. Along the way, we face challenges from the client including ridiculous notes, unreasonable feedback, and brutal critique.

      @@BenMarriott i think the recipe is already in a great space (initial brief, timed challenge, mid-challenge curve balls).
      Some things that could mix it up is putting in restrictions (only typography, specific styles, set colour palettes, only 'x'-type shape layers, etc.)
      Also different guests help freshen up approaches etc. Maybe even tournament style progression?
      Would love to discuss further if you're keen!

      I thought the same too. I am not a professional designer. I just do that as a hobby, but I definitely believe Ben's version is better and more aesthetically pleasing, but I guess the project wasn't to appeal for a young modern client, rather an old-style client.. which sometimes can be hard especially if you are a young designer influenced by modern styles.
