Interactive Motion Graphics

Overview: How it's done, how long it takes and what to expect.

Creation of interactive content can be an extremely quick and simple process.

how it works

The interactive content is placed online, viewable with any browser. Animations are full-screen. Android and Windows devices pose no problems.

iOS

Where iOS will not interact with content, the options are (1) use a different handset, (2) run the animation as a video, or (3) register the app with Apple .

IN GENERAL:

  • Older devices are quicker and easier
  • Video failsafe
  • Windows / Android 4.0 reliable

preinstallation

the longer the lead time, the more devices may be preinstalled and tested.

standby

I can make changes and load to device quickly enough to be able to go on standby at shoot, to affect any changes as directed.

post / technical

Animations are resolution-independent, freely scalable vectors (with variable frame rate, where frame rates apply). They are thus ideal to supply to post for insertion as they can display motion tracking markers while simultaneously providing an action/reaction guide to the actor. For camera, the simulated display provides accurate light emission characteristics to scene and reduces the load in post.

Animations and their derived video counterparts are supplied to production on wrap, regardless of intentions in post, for no reason other than to be on hand if required.
