NYC post no. 4 (last one). Objects, artwork, design and engineering. Things that help people be people.

Very happy to have animated the logo for new game “Assemble with care” by @ustwogames. The guys @somethinggram asked to animate the logo they designed and hopefully you get the essence of the game with it. Out now on App and Play Stores. * * * * * #logo #logoanimation #animatedlogo #ustwo #ustwogames #studiosomething #playnorth #assemblewithcare #motiongraphics #motiondesign #motion #logoanimationinspiration
