Intro Animation

To introduce the topic of clothing sizes not being consistent, I made a silhouette of a woman morph between different body types and have each body type try out clothes of different size tags.

“Three Sizes” Morphing 3D Model

I created a 3D model of a woman and sculpted three additional shape keys such that she is able to morph between different bust, waist, and hip measurements. The textures were hand-painted in watercolour style as requested by the client. This low poly model is rigged and fully optimised for real-time web rendering.

Thumbnails

The intro animation was adapted for their newsletter thumbnail while I created a new illustration to visualise the same concept where still images were required.
