Personal Project

From Infographic to Motion Graphics

I recently created my first motion graphics video! While looking for small businesses to design websites for, I came across an infographic on Dirty Habit' Cocktail’s website and was inspired to transform it into a motion graphic.

The 25-second video I made using Jitter.video, a free and easy to use motion graphics software with preset motion animations that I applied and layered.

The original infographic from Dirty Habit Cocktails.
