Gastaloops — 100 GIFs in 100 Days by Nicola Gastaldi

Did you hear about the Gastaloops project by Nicola Gastaldi? If not, let me explain. Nicola Gastaldi is working as a motion graphics designer, 3D artist, Cinema 4D generalist, projection mapping expert, and V-ray enthusiast. He has recently completed a personal project where he has created 100 looping animated GIFs in 100 days. While browsing through the internet, Nicola Gastaldi found a lot of people who manage to create personal projects on a daily basis. Each new day they are able to produce something completely new, something highly creative. At first he thought, he’s way too busy with his job and family. Nevertheless, he wanted to give it a shot so he started to create one animation a day. Over the time of 100 days, he has produced 100 amazing loops. Each animated GIF has been created using a limited range of colors and not more than 50 frames. Four examples can be found below. For those of you who want to see the complete project, please have a look here.
