thirty
"I used to wake up with a smile and go to bed at night with a dream, but now I'm turning thirty."
INSIDE, Bo Burnham, 2021

For the entire first semester of 2023 I could only think about the fact that I would be turning 30 that year, so I had no choice but to turn that feeling into a gif 😿 I wanted to give special attention to the looks this time, so before I started animating I finished a very detailed style frame (something I should do every time, but personal projects are chaotic).
A big design and animation reference for this project was Keith Pakiz, I had just found out about his work and was absolutely obsessed! I really like this gif because I feel like it translated perfectly something I was only feeling in my head, and it reminds me of why I love animation so much.
