Animation Gif by Micael Reynaud
Freelance designer and stop-motion animator Micaël Reynaud creates animated GIFs. His process involves the use of video techniques like slit-scanning, time-lapse, and various forms of masking to create what he refers to as “hypnotic very short films.” Indeed many of these animations are pulled from fully realized videos which you can watch on his Vimeo channel.
Reynaud’s work has not gone unnoticed in the art world. His pigeon GIF was a finalist in the first Saatchi Gallery Motion Photography competition, and he recently won the 2014 Giphoscope International Art GIF contest.
