Art Promotion Effects
Animated presentation of illustration, painting, or design work for portfolios and prints.
Artists sharing illustration, painting, or design work are presenting a finished creative decision, not a product, so the effects AniFX plans for art promotion are chosen to feel like a natural extension of the piece rather than an external effect layered on top.
This use case overlaps heavily with the dreamy and minimal styles for exactly that reason — subtlety reads as respect for the original work, while an aggressive effect risks looking like it's overriding the artist's choices.
