Spill The Tea

what makes me happy

  • This was part of my entry for the JKR Sparks Academy, where I had to create something in response to the prompt ‘What makes you happy and why?’.

  • This was a solo project in which I completed the following:

    • Ideation

    • Motion design

    • Photography

    • Editing

    1. Ideation - I thought about all the different things that make me happy and mind-mapped them.

    2. Photography - Once I decided on my idea and what makes me happy, I took photos of some of my favourite mugs in the kitchen cupboard.

    3. Photoshop - I edited the images to remove the background.

    4. After Effects - I animated the mugs to stack on top of each other.

  • The thing which makes me happy is my nightly cup of tea and gossip with my mum. Whenever I'm home from university or work, I love nothing more than catching up with my mum. Sometimes, it features the rest of my family if they’re around, and we stick the kettle on, get the biscuits out, and chat for hours.

    The outcome is a fun, modern animated clip of my favourite mugs to symbolise my happiness.
