CalArts GD 2024

The award-winning website showcases the work and lives of 65 CalArts graphic design students, functioning as a dynamic yearbook celebrating the students’ creative output and daily experiences over a transformative 35-week academic year. Each student is represented with an interactive, stop-motion-animated 360-degree portrait, featured in a grid system inspired by the graphic design grid and calendars.
