Concept
Each of these musical icons were advocates for a cause greater than themselves. Their method of expression was music and performance. Kendrick Lamar has sung about the treatment of African Americans in the United States. He is involved in the Black Lives Matter Movement. David Bowie influenced many in terms of identity with his everchanging image and androgynous characters. Bob Dylan fought for freedom and peace with his musical artistry in the Civil Rights Movement.
Motion Application
An animated piece was on the Kendrick poster created in previous semester. Elements were animated and transitions were added. Consideration to the way the viewer’s eyes move across/around the screen. Movement was the central aspect to this motion piece, so attention to the timing was critical.
