Create an Animation

Contest Brief

Our goal is to create an animation of a red teardrop falling into a pool of water and having a ripple effect generated. This animation is for the first slider on a new website that we are developing called https://cetec.technology. You can see the existing logo for CETEC on the new website that we are developing. The red teardrop can be seen here: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1403/8677/files/CETEC-Logo-1391x1049.png?8967241800088342011; however, it may be emulated in any other fashion.

The slider on this Shopify website is using Revolution Slider so the animation would be written in HTML5 and it would be able to integrate into the current website design. I will attach the current front page slider's code so that you have an idea of what you'd be working with.

For development purposes, I have attached the revolution slider plugin which can be installed on WordPress.

Employer Feedback

“Out of all 15 contestants in our contest, "LostFrame" created an animation that blew us away. His animation skills are incredible. He created an animation that actually looked real and it was exactly what we were looking for! I'm surprised that he isn't being employed by Hollywood. Excellent work! -Michael Loftus & Mike Richardson”

    Here is the red teardrop that I extracted from my client's logo. I do believe that he has a vector graphic version of the logo from which a higher resolution rendering of the icon could be extracted: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1403/8677/files/red-teardrop.png?18144633735653477048

    Your work is the best that I have seen. I need to wait until my client arrives back in the USA (he should be arriving soon) in order to get feedback from him. He wants that red teardrop to be dropping into the water creating a ripple effect. I believe he has the vector graphic file that we could use to make sure that it has the highest resolution possible.

    Hi! I´m working on your project. Give me a few hours. I´ll use a 3d fluid simulation. Just to be clear.: you need the red drop to fall from the logo into a water "pound". water will be transparent and droplet will be red. I´m i right? :)

      Awesome, thank you. The droplet is within the attached logo file which is in PSD format. Please read the comments above (I have added additional details within my responses). Thank you!

    Hi! i suggest making a video because the slider has no compatibility to animations made from zero.

      html 5 is best option in case of slider if you cant make it just don t mislead the contest holder

      I believe that it could be a mix of both video and animation or simply video. The dimensions of the slider are 1920x746... The revolution slider plugin (for WordPress is attached for development purposes). The Shopify website's Revolution Slider is edited via an HTML file and that code is attached.

      Ideally, the end result would be at a high enough resolution to look good on the first slider of the website.

      I believe the only color requirement is that the teardrop is red and matches CETEC's logo color which is: Red HEX #cb262a
      Pantone 1797c
      R203 G38 B42

    I suppose developing the source code for this Shopify website's revolution slider could be developed initially in WordPress. I have attached the source code for WordPress' Revolution Slider plugin. This may be of use.

      I agree with tinatinba, a .GIF animation is not an ideal solution for this project

    A video background would work if HTML5 is not a viable solution. I look forward to seeking the best solution. I would think that the ripple effect would be a video in the background and the red drop from the logo file would move down vertically.
