Amazon Menu - Flurries

Mobile

Dec, 2016

If you use the Amazon app, you might have noticed something a little different when you tap the menu. My teammate Timothy Whalin and I teamed up to test some snowfall animations. This was really fun to experiment with- so thanks Tim for bringing me in to collaborate. Also, thank you to my friend Jordan's Periscope Hearts emitter work he demoed at one of our early Framer Seattle meetups that inspired me on how to think about generating the snow with random fall patterns.

I built a prototype to test the animations for snow-flurries. This was a project lead by designer Tim Whaling from the App Nav Team. To test the animations I built this prototype using FramerJS (http://www.framerjs.com) and Tim and I tried a fiew experiements. This was the first iteration of a series.
