Animated Unity Logo

There is a topic here:
http://forum.unity3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=60325
about the Unity logo, thought I’d try my hand at creating an animated one:

Hey I really like it!

Hmmm … my iPad doesn’t have Flash, so I can’t watch this :frowning: … I think animated logos should be available in GIF :wink:

Thanks, robinking.

jashan, while I can appreciate your predicament,
I don’t have program that will output to an animated gif, haven’t had one in some time.
Any other format you can see, how about Quicktime?

Damn, that looks nice! Only that last soundeffect seems kinda strange to me. Other than that, fantastic work!

Thanks, Inkognito,
“Only that last sound effect seems kinda strange to me”

It is meant to match the transition from the lined look to the filled out look.

Back on my Mac :wink: … I guess Quicktime should work on the iPad … anyways, seen it and looks cool :slight_smile:

Btw: iPad and friends do support YouTube, so when you have a link to YouTube, that’ll work for iOS users :wink:

That was really nice.

that would make a great opening in games

Thanks guys, glad you like it.

“when you have a link to YouTube, that’ll work for iOS users”

Ok will have to keep that in mind.

That’s what I had in mind, when I opened the thread about revising Unity logo. Good work!

I think this is the wrong approach. You should be wanting to get rid of the Unity logo from your game entirely. (ie go Pro)

The final frames of your animation do look pretty good but I find the unfolding process too long and kind of pointless/meaningless.

i agree - speed up the unfolding

Ha ha, sorry you find it pointless, meaningless, guess it’s a matter of perspective.
Maybe more of a movie production company logo than a web logo (speed).

Ok, for those who like a faster version:

I don’t know about the whole “you should be wanting to get rid of the logo by going pro”. I think either way I would keep the unity logo. I mean I don’t have publisher logos or partner logos or anything so why not? Besides, I like Unity.

I like this unfolding logo but I would like to see the unfold be even faster and maybe be bursting at the seams with light before getting to the final frames. Instead of being just black. Just a thought.

Hmmm, ok, but think I’m kind of done with it for now.

I love it. Can I use it in my Game?

Could you add “Unity” or something like that below it?

I would do it, but the light would look “cuted” if you know what i mean.

You could give the source if possible.

I can add some text.
The source, meaning exactly what?
The base video (Max video render) used in AE CS 5 is 408 mb and I also used the Shine plugin for the effects.
Contact me by PM if you want to use it in your game,
I want to be sure you properly attribute the audio contributor.

I likey :wink:

Personally I think the sound should be something that makes one think of “creation” or “beginnings”. Which is often a perky tri-tone arpeggio thing like when Windows starts up - doo dee doo doo :slight_smile:
