IT WILL FIND YOU

Summary

A surreal looping motion piece featuring cascading Windows Media Player windows displaying a close-up face, rotating through a blue 3D grid space in creepy Y2K style.

Visual description

A deep cobalt blue void is drawn with white perspective grid lines on the floor and walls, receding in 3D. Floating in it are many stacked retro media player windows with grey bevelled frames and blue title bars, packed so tightly they form long extruded ribbons. The windows show low-resolution close-ups of a human eye with a grey iris, and of teeth and lips, creating a fragmented, unsettling face made from the stacks. The pixelated, Y2K software-chrome details are crisp against the flat blue.

Key takeaway

Repeat a nostalgic UI chrome element hundreds of times in 3D depth so it extrudes into a sculptural form, and let a stark single-color grid space carry the surreal tone.

Reuse notes

Reach for this as a motion still reference. Pairs with abstract, experimental directions. Original by perfectloop.
