Flynn Matthews Digital artist and animator Carl Burton designs quick atmospheric GIFs that mix elements of science fiction and surrealism. Glittering illuminated limbs seem to twist through the dark while neon lasers emerge from deep pools of water. Much of what you see here depicts Burton’s personal experiments, but the NYC-based creative also gives his illustrative style to images for long-form publications around the web. He works essentially with Cinema 4D, Photoshop, and After Effects, spending many hours or even days on a single GIF depending on its complexity.
