Alexander Mcqueen Inspiration is an in-depth analysis of the fashion designer's work and why it would be an excellent inspiration for 3D modelling, character design and concept art. His work is rich in storytelling, history, politics and poetry, making him an artist as well as a fashion designer. Alexander McQueen was very provocative. He wanted extreme emotions out of his audience and used his fashion shows for performance art. The clothes served as a canvas, and he told stories through his collections. The result is pieces, shows and videos that fit easily within the language & methodology of art history.

Awesome tools for a motion designer's workflow

Savage Beauty

This beautiful book explores the iconic work by Alexander McQueen and is filled with cultural references for motion graphics inspiration.

Sketchbook

Every motion design artist should have a sketchbook handy to brainstorm or sketch ideas before jumping onto the computer :)

Adobe Photoshop

Photoshop is an extremely powerful tool for motion design artists, helping you create photo-realistic styleframes to animating frame by frame. It’s a great program to have in your toolkit!

PSYCHOLOGY FOR CREATIVITY

It can be all-too-tempting to compare yourself to other motion designers out there, but comparisons only lead to frustration and anxiety. A key rule you’ll learn as a motion design artist is that it’s ok to be yourself. In fact, you need to be true to yourself and your own creative mindset to achieve uniqueness.
