Hibrayer - Animating Arabic Typography

Hibrayer = February + Hibr (Ink) is a 29 - day challenge in the same vain as Inktober but created to focus on arabic typography and calligraphy. I tried participating in this challenge in my way as a motion graphics animator as I am not that good in arabic typography. I tried thinking of a different animation for every word that reflects its meaning/feeling. This is still a work in progress (16/30) :D For more info on Hibrayer check here: http://fb.com/hibrayer

Hibrayer = February + Hibr (Ink) is a 29 - day challenge in the same vain as Inktober but created to focus on arabic typography and calligraphy. I tried participating in this challenge in my way as a motion graphics animator as arabic typography is not really my area of expertise. I worked with preset typefaces & fonts but tried thinking of a different animation for every word that reflects its meaning/feeling.
