Three globe films

Three globe films on one layout, with a much smaller earth and a smoother camera.

How it was directed

Kevin's film notes set one layout for all three films: the amount, the GT mark with the company name, and the a16z lockup with the round, each in a fixed corner, around a much smaller earth. He sent a reference for the camera, and each film passed rules written before the build: identical renders, a calm loop seam and still type.

Kevin chose globe turn as the film for the first X post.

What was made

Three films on one layout: "$27m" top left, the GT mark with "General Translation" top right, the a16z infra lockup with "Series A" bottom left, in Katagami, with a much smaller earth and a smoother perspective camera after Kevin's are.na reference. glyph-cycle comes with and without boxes; the 1-bit globe comes in white and in black.
