The fluid machine.

Fluid Motion

A personal project developed as the final exercise for the Keyframe Academy mentorship, led by Pedro Aquino.

A loop inspired by a Rube Goldberg machine, created to explore physics,
rhythm and continuity through motion.

The challenge was to make each element behave in a believable way.
Weight, impact, acceleration and timing needed to work together to keep the entire sequence connected, fluid and natural.

Before developing the final piece, I worked through a series of exercises focused on timing, keyframe precision, animation curves and fluidity.

These studies became the foundation for building the machine from scratch and refining each interaction into a continuous loop, reinforced by sound design.
