A collaboration project with illustrator Grant Fisher done in 2015. He made a series of illustrations depicting classic and current game console controllers and hand-held consoles. I saw this as an opportunity to learn animating shape layers in Adobe After Effects and reached out to him for a collaboration.
The idea was to show each controller transforming/morphing into another and see how the design of our favorite video game controllers evolved through the years. Below are the controllers in looping GIF form
