How to make an Animated Infographic
by Dean Meyers on May 1, 2015
Here’s a how-to on creating animation from TabletopWhale, utilizing Photoshop to build repeating cycle style art. This example applies this type of animation to scientific processes, but it could easily work to visualize any process that is repetitive, from seasonal activity to a manufacturing process.
The organization of the graphic launches you into the technical method way before it talks about planning the project, which might not be the idea method of starting, but it does give you the underlying technique right up front. This will be helpful if you’ve never created animated GIFs before, or if you aren’t familiar with cell frame animation, the most basic kind of 2D animation technique.
The author takes the classic “bouncing ball” animation, (usually taught either with or after a “walking cycle” as animation 101), and makes it a bouncing heart instead, to keep the theme related to biological science–although bouncing hearts are more in the realm of animated cartoons than scientific animations.
