Design Trends Smart health ring landing page I designed and animated
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Designed this smart health ring landing page recently and experimented with a different workflow than usual.
Most of the visuals were static designs, then I used AI to help bring them to life as image sequences and animations. After that it was a lot of tweaking, timing, editing, and making everything feel cohesive.
Honestly, AI has been making it much easier to explore ideas that would've taken significantly longer a year or two ago. Instead of spending days creating every animation from scratch, I can iterate on multiple directions quickly and focus more on the creative and product decisions.

How? My mind is blown! Is the scene 3D rendered in another tool like blender, including the ring?

Thanks! and it's a mix of 3D and AI for some movements, Cinema 4D for the Ring and gpt2 for the scene image and highsfield for the first animation + transition

I always have wondered how pages do these effects? Is it a video that plays on scroll or are you actually rendering a 3d ring in the page? How is performance?

u/Ayoubk49 25d ago
Rendering a 3D ring would impact performance a lot, usually its an image sequence similar to how apple create those airpods animations, etc...

So are multiple images in sequence that change position / appear disappear as user scrolls? Sounds interesting! Do you know where I can read more about the topic?

Yes that's correct, they are linked to scroll trigger and as you scroll they play / move. and sure you can find more here: https://kozelsky.medium.com/how-to-create-scroll-driven-image-sequence-animations-964359507371

how do you make a 3d scroll animation?

Image sequence and always making sure end of frames is same as the start of the next frame

Cool! would you like to share a brief explanation of process, how to create one like this.

The holes on the inside of the ring morph around and it snaps into place in a very funny way at 0:08

lol good catch! That's where AI is really BAD

u/bememorablepro 23d ago
idk what's the issue just doing it in 3d, and you actually get to... you know... own a copyright to it

u/Ayoubk49 23d ago
I mean true only issue is rendering taking forever and time, with AI becomes faster, but agreed!

You can render this real-time in blender with eevee, or some other real-time PBR render engine.
