Utopian GIF Contest Entry + Full Steps
High Quality .gif for Utopian.
I have created this using Photoshop.
- I cut the logo and put it on transparent background.
- I created a radial black and white background gradient to highlight the logo in the center.
- I created a new background radial gradient using the colors of the logo, by using the color picking tool.
- I switched the black and white gradient blending option to luminosity.
- I created a copy of the logo layer.
- I used filter gallery - neon glow, to create a different look for the logo.
- I created a copy of the colored background, then changed the hue option until i found a contrasting background for the new version of the logo.
- I created a new video timeline.
- I duplicated the first frame two times.
- On the middle frame i turned on the new background and new logo.
- I created 60 frames between the first and second, and 60 frames between the second and third frames.
- I used the save for web option, with the shown settings, and saved it as a gif.
- I also exportd an .mp4 video, because the quality is much better and the file size is 10 times smaller.
Check out the video on this link, the quality is awesome.
