I decided to participate in the 36 Days of Type challenge for the first time this year. I have sat on the sidelines watching for a few years but now I finally decided to jump in. From April 2nd until May 7th designers and illustrators from around the world shared their unique interpretations of our alphabet on Instagram one character a day.
Early on I set up my colour palette, the general structure of each letter, and a few parameters to make the project more challenging. I wanted each character to use a textured background that I photographed myself. I also set out to animate each character in After Effects to push my motion design skills further than I have gone before. This video is the complete compilation of my 36 Days of Type project. Hope you enjoy it!
Let me know in the comments below which animations were your favourites!
