Sunshine Vibes: Sharing Happiness Through Motion Graphics

Sunshine Vibes: Sharing Happiness Through Motion Graphics

Assist. Prof. Jinabhadr Kantaputra

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Introduction :

The creative research project on motion graphic design titled “Sunshine” aims to share happiness to everyone. This project is an innovative interdisciplinary media of visual communication design and music. The goal is to create an engaging and visually stunning motion graphic that captures the essence of happiness and radiates positivity. This project seeks to explore the use of motion graphics as means to communicate positive emotions and inspire joy in audiences. This is also for them to enjoy the rhythmic activities. The main character was a young lady who is the dance leader for everybody throughout the song. Also, the two-dimensional characters engaged with the motion graphics against the background of natural scenery.

This motion graphic was divided into three parts as follows: Part one, the first part started with morning glories of the day with fresh and beautiful natural atmosphere such as sunrise, blooming flowers, fresh trees and singing birds in the middle of the valley. Part two, the second part presented sharing of happiness in the international festival days by giving foreign flowers instead of Thai flowers to mothers, fathers, teachers, and the loved ones. This part depicts today’s multicultural society. Part three, the last part presented the giving of happiness to everyone. Animation of colorful balloons floating into the skies symbolized happiness, joyfulness, and cheerfulness.

The researcher has conducted this research project by studying related topics as follows: Happiness, Meditation, Nature, Music, Rhythmic Activities, and Motion Graphic. To design a quality motion graphic media project, the researcher prepared a survey questionnaire to collect responses and feedbacks from first-year students on the influence of colors and related graphics to their feelings of happiness. As a result, the 3rd scenes were designed by using colorful balloons floating into the skies to demonstrate the

atmosphere of happiness in many aspects such as Love, Freshness, Cheerfulness, Fun, and Mindfulness. Eventually, the “Sunshine” was used as a part of teaching medium in the course named, “Life Design and Happy Society.” The satisfaction assessment results were analyzed and used as inputs successively to this motion graphic design.

By sharing this creative work with the world, it hopes to bring a smile to the faces of all who see it, and to remind people of the beauty and joy that surrounds them. With “Sunshine,” it aims to inspire others to embrace positivity. It is believed that by sharing our own happiness, we can create a ripple effect of joy that touches the lives of everyone around us.

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Objectives:

1. To create innovative interdisciplinary motion graphic designs of visual communication design and music as media in communicating the sharing of happiness efficiently;

2. To support the use of musical rhythms in body movements of mindfulness and happiness;

3. To represent multicultural communities for students and the interested public, both Thai and foreigners.

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Methodology:

1. Studying on Meditation, Happiness, Nature, Music, Rhythmic Activities, and Motion Graphic;

2. Composing an English song titled, “Sunshine”

3. Recording the lyrics and completing the musical arrangement;

4. Recording the motion pictures of the lead dancer;

5. Surveying of color influence to human emotion and feeling.

6. Drawing cartoons based on four prototype characters in the story;

7. Creating graphics about happiness;

8. Placing the lead dancer and the graphics in each scene, making movements to match the rhythm of the music and adding transitions to combine all scenes.

9. Designing the title and graphics symbol for this motion graphic.

10. Evaluating satisfaction surveys of this media.

Areas of Creative Works / Techniques and Materials: Writing the lyric

The researcher and a sound designer have co-studied the music about happiness. We agree with the arrangement of musical harmony using melody of musical notes in the Key of G that created beautiful sounds, heart-felt satisfactions, and suitable tone for the meaning of the lyrics about happiness. The time signature of “Simple quadruple time” or “4/4” was selected because of its easy listening, not-too-fast rhythms. “Cubase Pro” computer music application was used to help the music composer appropriately. We have learned from the orchestra band and chosen various musical instruments for matching the music with the meaning of the song, “Sunshine.”

The orchestra musical instruments are selected as follows:

String Instruments: 2 Violins, 1 Cello, 1 Viola, 1 Guitar, and 1 Piano

Brass Instruments: 1 Trombone and 1 Trumpet

Woodwind instruments: 1 Flute

Percussion Instruments: 1 Tambourine and 1 Bongo Drum

Creating the characters and graphics with Illustrator application

 

Designing the characters

Mother: The beautiful mother is putting on the yellow apron to represent a woman who enjoys cooking for her family.

Teacher: The aged teacher is wearing a brown suit and tie to represent a respectable person.

Darling: The young man is wearing pink t-shirt and black jeans to represent a teenager falling in love.

 

Designing the graphic images of festival-day flower

Pink Carnation: For our mom on the International Mother’s Day.

White Rose: For our dad on the International Father’s Day.

Yellow Daisy: For our teacher on the International Teacher’s Day

Red Rose: For our darling on the Valentine’s Day

 

Designing the other graphic images

Parrots: They are colorful pets that have beatiful sound and be able to imitate human voice. The are friendly and always make us happy. This image is used for the scene of “Birds are singing at sunrise.”

Sun Flowers: They are elegant and strong flowers that always face the

sun for encountering a new day. This image is used the scene of “Leaves are dancing to say hello.”

Heart Image is the symbol of love. I make the pattern of them for representing the scene of “I give you with all my Heart.”

Balloons: In the Balloon Festivals, people are full of harmony, unity, and friendship. I design a balloon attaching a gift box floating in the sky for the scene of “I have a little box for everyone”.

Airplane: When we were young, we always looked at an airplane in the sky. This gave us a lot of imagination and happiness. Since an airplane usually full of passengers, so I use it for representing the scene of “Join anyone share anyone.”

Clouds: Clouds in the sky give the feeling of comfortable, imagination and freedom, so I put them in all sky scenes.

Colorful balloons flying out of the gift box: When we love and care someone, we will let them know by giving a gift on the festival day. This is a way to share the happiness to others. In fact, you can always give a box of happiness to people around you. In this motion, I compare many colorful balloons to happiness. This

image perfectly represents the scene of “Open the box. Open the Happiness”

Taddy bear: The lovely pink Taddy bear with Santra hat is holding colorful sweet Lollipop. She is sitting on the green box with letter “H” and “N” on each side. And the box is floating in the sky by two pink balloons. This image be able to represent the scene of

“A Little Box of Happiness” very well.

Fire Works: As we know, the fireworks in the sky are best display for the final show of festival. Then I design the fireworks to get along well with other graphics for the final scene of this motion to enrich the happiness.

 

Final Scene

– To get rid of green color and animate all graphics with After Effect Application.

– Then the girl clips are ready for using with any scenes.

– The dancing girl with valley scene

 

Design title and graphics symbol for the motion graphic

“Sunshine” is the title of this motion graphic to convey clear and concise meanings of morning sunrise in the middle of a valley. This gives the men and women powers to train themselves well and forward the gift of happiness to others.

 

Choosing a typeface for the title

This researcher chose the typeface, “Coconut Beach” for the title, “Sunshine” because the font has delicate fine-looking lines that are compatible to the background music accompanied by the singing of a young lady who was the lead dancer. In addition, the typeface has contemporary characters, casual and not too conventional, consistent with the style of graphics and background images used.

Graphic Symbol

The researcher presented the graphic symbol using scenery of the valley in the morning sunrise, to show the powers of Nature that is the foundation of happiness for men and women. Simplified graphic lines of the images were used to support the memories of the viewers and be a remarkable symbol.

Modifier words for “Sunshine”

The words, “Happy Dance for Everyone” were used to place under the title, “Sunshine” for a better understanding of the theme. The researcher chose the typeface, “Tahoma,” for the modifier words because it is a popular font on computer screens and other digital devices. Even in small letters, the font is clear and easy to read.

Conclusion:

While the researcher was working on music composition, the severe COVID-19 outbreak continued. The pandemic was a huge obstacle for the production. The researcher solved the problem by asking the sound designer to create a prototype singing sounds in the English language using computer-aid programming. The singer practiced the singing sounds from the prototype. The team producer organized online meetings to remotely mix and revise sound in a recording studio.

The researcher prepared a survey questionnaire on emotions and feelings of colors (Power of Color). Feedback responses were received from first-year students of Visual Communication Arts, College of Design, and Faculty of Physical Therapy and Sport Medicine. The survey found that bright and beautiful colors provoked a wide range of emotions and feelings. As a result, the 2nd and 3rd scenes, related to sharing happiness, were designed using colorful balloons floating up into the skies to demonstrate the atmosphere of happiness in many aspects such as Love, Freshness, Cheerfulness, Fun, and Mindfulness.

The satisfaction survey questionnaire aimed to assess the completed motion graphic media. Two groups of the students evaluated the motion graphic design duly. Four assessment topics

included: 1. Image and Motion, 2. Sound and Music, 3. Overall Feedback, and 4. Usefulness of the Media. The satisfaction assessment resulted at an average score of 4.43, equivalent to a very good level.

The researcher truly hopes that this motion graphic media will encourage the public and anyone interested to participate in the activities. Audiences and viewers are happy and entertained. In addition, the media will create an inspiration for the gift of happiness to mothers, fathers, teachers, loved ones, and fellow men and women. Our society will be a better living place filled with love and peace.

From that concept, the creator of the work wants to present Works for general audiences to realize and question society how can we be confident with man-made rules, regulations or laws and ignoring these loopholes.

In its form, it depicts a bizarre, incomplete skeleton. This is presented in a symbolic sense. Not all humans in society are perfect both mind and thought.

And there is a dense barbed wire fence surrounding it. Barbed wire is symbolic that is a man-made rule, regulation or law to protect both concepts and ways of performing in daily life to be stable and safe. Or look at it in another way, a densely enclosed barbed wire fence will possibly be like a bond that human beings in society cannot escape from the faults of rules and laws, including loopholes and imperfect or not.

Techniques and Materials:

From this concept, the creator takes Photos & Retouching technique and finish by silkscreen on canvas(75cm. x 150 cm.) that could be respond such concept.

Conclusion:

Man-made rules, regulations or laws to protect both concepts, property and ways of doing things in daily life to be stable and safe, regardless of the other side of the rules, loopholes of Man- made that is the right thing or not. Or should we let it continue like this? Not dare to step away from what is like a barbed wire fence that binds us

Use paper clay as the main material for sculpting the works. Use a glass bottle as a base for Wang Zhao Jun’s stone bench. All of the rocks are molded with foam. The structure of the tree shape uses wire of various sizes to make the trunk and branches, flower clay is used to make flowers and ornaments. In addition, artificial fur, artificial gold chains, and artificial snow were also used to decorate the details of the works.

Conclusion:

“Wang Zhao Jun: so beautiful as to make flying geese fall” aims to present the image of Wang Zhao Jun, regarded as one of the four most beautiful women in Chinese history as imagined by the Creative Artist. In addition, Wang Zhao Jun’s beauty was also regarded as a sacrifice who was willing to devote herself to protecting the peace of the country by being willing to get married in Xiongnu; far away barbarian land.The Creative Artist imagined the image of Wang Zhao Jun while she was hitchhiking, to be a young woman with a beautiful face dressed in the robes of a nobleman in the style of the Han Dynasty and a long, bright red shawl adorned with fur over another layer. She was sitting and playing a song from Pipa; her trusty musical instrument, to alleviate the loneliness of being distant from her relatives and homeland without knowing the time to return. The scenery behind her was a rock and the entire area was covered with white snow to convey a lonely and cold atmosphere but around her, Mei flower trees were blooming with pale pinkish-white flowers all around her. The creator intends to compare Wang Zhao Jun and Mei flowers because Mei is a symbol that conveys elegance, purity, and perseverance. The meaning of Mei flowers also means to inspire people to fight through hardships and be determined to face obstacles with strength.

creating the artwork “Wang Zhao Jun: “She is so beautiful as to make flying geese fall” with paper clay material, it can respond well to the work with its easy-to-shape properties. Able to invent work to be complex, delicate, and able to easily paint acrylic over the work surface. You can also use materials such as artificial gold necklaces or other synthetic materials such as faux fur, artificial snow, and flower clay can be decorated to add detail to the work.

“Me as We” & “We vs Me”

“Me as We” & “We vs Me”

Asst.Prof Dr. Arttawut Changvittaya

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Introduction :

The principles of “Me as We” and “We vs Me” are two mirror concepts that reflect how we view ourselves in relation to the wider society and fellowship. Through Design Thinking and an understanding of transgenerational issues, these concepts can be used to promote resilience, empathy, sympathy, and a growth mindset.

“Me as We” emphasizes the interconnectedness of individuals and the wider society and fellowship, promoting shared values and common goals that lead to a more harmonious and connected society. Using Design Thinking to approach problems through this lens, we can create solutions that address the unique needs of individuals while promoting the well-being of the wider society and fellowship. The phrase “one for all, all for one” can serve as a guiding principle for this process, emphasizing the importance of a collective approach that balances the needs of the individual and the wider society and fellowship.

In contrast, the “We vs Me” abstract can perpetuate transgenerational issues by prioritizing the needs of the individual over those of the wider society and fellowship. This approach can lead to a lack of empathy and understanding, resulting in solutions that do not address the needs of the wider society and fellowship.

The convergence of “Me as We” and “We vs Me” through Design Thinking can promote resilience, empathy, sympathy, and a growth mindset. By recognizing the interconnectedness of individuals and the wider society and fellowship, we can create solutions that promote healing and resilience across generations, breaking down the barriers that arise from an individualistic approach. This approach fosters a sense of collective responsibility and promotes the well-being of all members of the society and fellowship, fostering empathy and a growth mindset that leads to personal and collective growth.

Overall, the concepts of “Me as We” and “We vs Me” represent two different perspectives on the role of the individual in the wider society and fellowship. By exploring the ideas of Design Thinking, transgenerational issues, and the principles of “one for all, all for one,” these concepts can be used to promote a more compassionate, empathetic, and resilient society and fellowship. By recognizing the interconnectedness of individuals and the wider society and fellowship, we can create solutions that promote healing and resilience across generations, working towards building a society and fellowship where individuals can thrive.

“Embracing a Growth Mindset and promoting Convergence between ‘Me as We’ and ‘We vs Me’ reflects our relationship with society and fellowship. With Design Thinking and transgenerational awareness, we can foster resilience, empathy, and shared goals. ‘Me as We’ values interconnectedness, while ‘We vs Me’ can perpetuate transgenerational issues. Converging these concepts through Design Thinking promotes collective responsibility and well-being. Recognizing our interconnectedness, we can create solutions that promote healing and growth across generations, building a society and fellowship where individuals thrive.”

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Objectives:

In conclusion, the objective of exploring the mirror concepts of “Me as We” and “We vs Me” through the lens of Design Thinking and a transgenerational understanding is to promote a more interconnected, compassionate, and resilient society and fellowship.

By recognizing the importance of a collective approach that balances the needs of the individual and the wider society and fellowship, we can create solutions that promote healing and growth across generations. With a focus on empathy, sympathy, and a growth mindset, we can break down the barriers that arise from an individualistic approach and foster a sense of collective responsibility for the well-being of all members of the society and fellowship.

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Methodology:

Design Thinking is a problem-solving methodology that focuses on user-centered design, creativity, and experimentation. The methodology involves the following steps:

1.Empathy: The first step of Design Thinking involves understanding the users’ needs and pain points. Through research and observation, designers gain insight into the users’ experiences and perspectives.

2. Define: Based on the insights from the empathy stage, designers define the problem they are trying to solve, often by crafting a problem statement.

3. Ideate: In this stage, designers generate a large number of possible solutions without judgment, allowing for free-flowing creativity and brainstorming.

4. Prototype: Using the best ideas from the ideation stage, designers create a tangible representation of the solution in the form of a prototype. The prototype can be low-fidelity, such as a sketch or diagram, or high-fidelity, such as a working model.

5, Test: Finally, the prototype is tested with users, and feedback is gathered to evaluate the effectiveness of the solution. This feedback is then used to refine the solution and create a more effective prototype.

The iterative nature of Design Thinking allows designers to continuously refine and improve the solution, based on feedback from users. By focusing on empathy, creativity, experimentation, and user- centered design, Design Thinking provides a structured approach to problem-solving that can be applied to a wide range of fields and industries.

Conclusion:

The principles of “Me as We” and “We vs Me” can be transformative, promoting empathy, sympathy, and resilience in individuals and communities. “Me as We” emphasizes the interconnectedness of individuals and the community, promoting shared values and common goals that lead to a more harmonious and connected society. By contrast, the “We vs Me” abstract can perpetuate transgenerational issues by prioritizing the needs of the individual over those of the community, leading to a more divided and individualistic society.

Overall, the result of applying the principles of “Me as We” is a more compassionate, empathetic, and resilient society, while the result of “We vs Me” is a society that lacks empathy and understanding, perpetuating transgenerational issues. By recognizing the interconnectedness of individuals and the community, we can create solutions that promote healing and resilience across generations, breaking down the barriers that arise from an individualistic approach.

Look into …

Look into ...

Ms. Podjanee Kakaew

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Introduction :

At times, we tend to make quick judgments on our own, without recognizing that each person in this world is unique and has had different life experiences and influences. We may judge others based solely on their actions without taking into account the facts or information that is needed to make a proper assessment. This is especially true in our current society, where we are bombarded with news on a regular basis and may be tempted to make superficial judgments about the people or situations we encounter.

In creating each of their works, the artists drew inspiration from various digital media resources, which are often viewed superficially without being fully analyzed or considered. Through their use of motion graphics techniques, the artists sought to encourage deeper and more rational thinking, moving away from superficial judgments and instead focusing on a more thoughtful and nuanced approach to understanding the world.

The digital artworks created through this process convey a sense of depth and complexity, urging viewers to take a closer look at the world around them and to consider the various factors that may be influencing the situations they encounter. By avoiding superficiality and striving for a deeper understanding, individuals can gain a more nuanced and informed perspective on the world, one that is not limited by quick judgments or superficial assessments.

 

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Objectives:

This artwork serves as a reminder of the importance of being informed, thinking critically, and examining situations in depth before making a decision. By doing so, individuals can make more informed decisions that are based on reason and analysis, rather than superficial details or hasty judgments.

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Methodology:

This visual presentation is a result of the inspiration drawn by artists from the digital society. artists have used the image of the eye to convey the perspective of seeing and meeting. At the beginning of the image, the eye appears unclear, conveying a superficial look .The use of color in the presentation is also significant. Adding color to the image of the eye signifies the addition of information or news, which may be either true or false. As the presentation progresses, the image becomes clearer, conveying a deeper vision that requires the viewer to think about the subject matter until they see a clearer picture.

Conclusion:

This artwork represents the importance of critical thinking when consuming news. It encourages us to delve deeper into the facts, consider the causes and effects, and broaden our perspective before making any judgments or decisions. By taking a more analytical and informed approach to the news, we can gain a clearer understanding of the world around us. This piece of art is a reminder to be mindful of the information we consume and to approach it with a critical eye.

Replenishment

Replenishment

Ms. Darunee Pungwongyat

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Introduction :

Whenever we yearn for something in life, it means that our lives are lacking something. The more we lack, the more we demand in order to fill that void. We may seek fulfillment from those around us, but if we cannot obtain what we desire, we will begin to suffer.

However, if we are able to find fulfillment within ourselves, we won’t have to rely on others to provide it for us.

One way to start this journey is by getting to know ourselves better. We can step back and take a closer look at ourselves, slowing down our lives to really understand what we want and need. By learning to love ourselves and valuing our own worth, we can take better care of our physical and mental health and spend time doing things that bring us joy and fulfillment.

In this work, the artist aims to communicate to those who rely on others for fulfillment to instead look inward and practice finding it within themselves. By doing so, they will be able to face any difficulties, obstacles, or failures with a sense of fulfillment and self-sufficiency.

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Objectives:

To encourage individuals who lack fulfillment in life, it is important to train oneself to cultivate a sense of happiness that is appropriate to each person.

<span data-metadata=""><span data-buffer="">Methodology:

– Define the concept.

– Conduct a study to gather relevant information and analyze data.

– Design a movement plan.

– Create 3D models using Autodesk Maya.

– Develop textures, lighting, and rendering for the scene using Arnold Renderer.

– Enhance the mood and tone of the rendered images using Adobe After Effects.

Techniques and Materials:

Digital Art

Conclusion:

As an artist, my job is to encourage people to look within themselves and practice finding inner fulfillment. instead of demanding from others We should focus on cultivating from within. when we learn to fill ourselves We can face any difficulties, obstacles, or setbacks and still feel fulfilled all the time.
