Advanced Bracket

Why we chose this program:
This nicely structured graphic is a really creative interpretation of the theme, and it shows great proficiency with beziers! It also makes you wish elephants could fly. Just wouldn't want to be underneath though!

This animated short story has really complex graphics and a really neat animation of a person walking. Combined with an intriguing backstory, this program is very well done!
Created By: Leonel Morales Díaz
Why we chose this program:
At first glance, this project may appear to look like a normal staircase, but using a complex perspective it really puts a creative spin to regular impossible shapes! The stars are also a nice touch! We couldn't stop watching this!

The Most Impossible You Can Be

Why we chose this program:
This project uses vertex shapes and only three colors to draw a very complex impossible shape. It has a lot of tricky bends and curves which make absolutely no sense in real life. It really shows the power of shading!
