CV and Business Card

____Since I've actually had these ready for a long while now (although it is continuously being updated), I thought I ought to put my hand-out CV and business card on here for show.

The scanimation theme was because of my genuine love of it, motion graphics, optical illusion, Eadweard Muybridge and Stefan Sagmeister. I thought it'd be great to be able to put some movement into a print-out in order to stand out myself.

Why the butterfly? I think the idea originated from the caterpillar > cacoon > butterfly as a symbolism for me going through college > university > working life.
Plus it makes a great and easily recognisable silhouette image, which, being a butterfly, is related to beauty and positivity.

The butterfly scanimation is continued into the smaller dimensions of the business card, which continues to work well with the provided piece of acetate (containing the purpose printed lines created for the butterfly to make its move).
