JUST FOR FUN: Stixel animations

Posted By: Kate RussellPosted date: September 28, 2013

I was just reminded of some animations I made a couple of years ago by @dotswan on Twitter who posted this crazy gif animation.

I spent a lot of time on these, made each frame of the animation as Photoshop layers and then ported them over to Image Ready to make the .gif animation. It’s pretty simple, extremely time-consuming and very therapeutic (like basket weaving)… let me know what you think in the comments below 🙂

Suicide Block – an ironic study of modern city living

Stixel Machine – the endless torture of the little men

And the crowning glory of my pixel man phase…

Stixel-Squared – it goes on forever…
