Self-initiated project, created in Cinema 4D.
Organically moving form, gradually reveals itself to the eye.

INSPIRATION
I intended to do some creative typography animation for a while now.
Initial inspiration for the project came to me from an animation "There is Always a Way" by Dennis Hoogstad which isn't typographic but the colour palette struck me (the image on the left hand side below).
I was also looking at that time at a lot of stuff by Zeitgeist, especially "ADC Miami Paratectonic" (the image on the right hand side below).
Here are some other images I was looking at:
PROCESS
Why letter "Z"?
I was awed by the bizarre work of Zeitgeist at the time and choosing that letter was a kind of a tribute to them.
Here are some sketches I made in my sketchbook.
First initial designs in Illustrator
The model built in Cinema 4D with few colour variations
Once I had the animation ready, I took it to garageBand and created a soundtrack.
I tried to create a mood that would suit the character of the Zetter.
The colour palette made me think of 60's so I went for some old school sounding instruments.
Are you Zettered yet?
