Animation & Motion Design

Capture
Using the key principles of motion design, formalised through an animated infographic, I seek to examine
the social and technological evolution of image capture devices.It has been a constant that our modern cultural and social evolution or indeed devolution has been recorded, expressed and captured through visual means.
Our pursuit of the visual has seen many transformations and adaptations but it is the move from the portraitist and the invention of the image capture device that has changed how we consume and disseminate images.
From the long slow exposure times of the Daguerreotype prints of the 1800’s to the instant imaging capabilities of today’s technology, the creation, manipulation and dissemination of images has never been as readily accessible. People now share, create and express the minutiae of their daily lives, globally in milliseconds en masse. Capture is my exploration of these themes.
