Motion Graphics Presentation for Ubuntu Mobile

Tags: Design

This article is more than 12 years old.


This is a presentation of our ‘Paper’ Motion theme for Ubuntu Mobile.

The theme is informed by the ‘paper’ graphic style of the mobile OS and we have sought to accentuate it wherever possible. Rather than using more overt effects like page curling and folding, we have hinted at the theme by using multiple layers, ‘stacking’ and suggestive effects. Multiple layers of sliding paper can be observed in the animation of the switch button, stacking can be seen occurring on the icons in the launcher and an example of a suggestive page-turning effect can be seen during the ‘App Stacking’ example.
