Skidmore Mind

Skidmore College wanted a fun microsite and video player for a series of five-minute documentaries they commissioned about the creative passions of students at Skidmore.

The Skidmore Mind project is, at heart, a series of interactive animated transition themes wrapped around a glorified video player. Clicking on moving objects causes surprise “easter eggs” to trigger. The brain is the navigational device by hovering on the various lobes. Each animation illustrates the passion featured in the video, with primitive collage using cutouts and textures.
