There are two things that I want to show you today, both are Harry Potter related — only one of them motion design related.
First lets go with the one that has relevance, the Story of the Three Brothers. For anyone familiar with either the HP books or movies you will know what I'm talking about. For anyone who lives under a rock and never saw the films or picked up the books ( there is someone here at school who knows nothing about the Boy-Who-Lived and she is American) let me give you some back story.
In the final book and movie (movie 7 actually) Hermione tells the story of the three Peveral (sorry for spelling) brothers from a wizarding children's story book the Dumbledore left her. How they met Death and Death gave them gifts...oh just watch it.
Anyway, the point it that this type of animation is just like motion design if not completely that. So check it out for the first time, or just to refresh your memories.
Next is a video for the true fans. I mentioned Pottermore before and shared the first commercial with J. K. Rowling in it with all of you. Now I show you the newest video that has been put up on this site. A sneak peek video — not made by beta testers. With this new look into a very much waited for site (at least for those of us not chosen to be testers) an announcement joined the post. No, it is not in the video, but on the website:
Pottermore is coming the beginning of April!
I know, I know, they said October, but still if it's true that means that it is here this month. So I leave you all this official sneak peek by the makers. If you weren't on pins and needles before, you will be now.
