Overview
As a part of the A+D Design & Marketing Team, I was tasked with leading and participating in a project involving taking a few of the logos from the team's visual identity and bringing them to life through animation & motion design. Working with two others we each took on one of three logos, with myself taking on the primary logo, featuring our illustrated eagle mascot and wordmark.

Approach & Deliverables
After considering a couple possible directions, my team and I voted on a version that had the eagle rising from below, lifting itself into the air before diving into the final logo position. I am not an animator, so this project tested my illustration ability and patience quite a bit. I already had a huge respect for animators, but even more so now that I've gone through a fraction of their processes. Despite its difficulties, I feel this project adds a valuable asset for the team behind Southern Miss Design.
