SS Avalanche::Design Drawing
This project set out to design a backpack to be used by first responders during emergency mountain rescues, specifically the variety hindered by the white fluffy stuff that we call snow. And if you were wondering the Eskimo don’t have a million words for snow, that’s the stuff of urban legend. At any rate, the need for prepared first responders in mountain rescue situations is real and the tale of a successful rescue by a prepared rescue team can become legendary.
This pack looked to incorporate a camel-pak, a way to carry a shovel, lots of rope, a first aid kit, and collapsible probes that aid in locating a buried victim.

mkelive::motion graphics in After Effects
Here’s a quick rundown on what has transpired so far.
We selected a unique sound from www.freesound.org, a blues tune with strong piano sound that is completely different from what one might expect. The original sound can be found here. Audacity was used to convert the .ogg file into a .mp3 file. Using Adobe Soundbooth I edited the .mp3 for time and for sounds that could be matched to the movements of the mkelive animation. listen Once the sound was set the vector graphic needed some attention. The original was edited in Adobe Illustrator to create separate layers for all the moving pieces, paying close attention to layer ordering in order to preserve the correct overlapping. The result was imported into an Adobe After Effects composition. The colored spheres were turned into bouncing bundles of energy that eventually coalesce into a network of glowing potential. The rest of the graphic fades into view, accented by the wave that flows under the “mke” section and the “connecting people” text that glows.
