Kanye West Evolution Series - Motion Design & Print

I’ve always had an appreication for Kanye’s music and branding throughout the years. Over the span of 2 months, I took some timeto study his albums and create a pixel animation of what each album represented and what iconography stood out. Each animation was also translated into physical form with stickers and a compilation poster.
