A self-directed motion design study exploring how illustrated environments and data-driven graphics can be brought to life through animation. I developed the map from an initial hand-drawn composition, created the iconography and infographic elements in Adobe Illustrator, and animated the complete scene in After Effects.

The project combines animated routes and environmental details within a playful adventure-map aesthetic. My focus was on visual hierarchy, timing and transitions, making the information easy to follow while maintaining a cohesive and engaging visual style.

Process: The environment artwork was developed from my original hand-drawn composition using Midjourney, while I designed the icons and infographic elements in Adobe Illustrator and completed all animation and compositing in Adobe After Effects.
