I recently had the opportunity to work on wedding invites for two of my professors. Motion graphics was the go-to solution for me. Working with the art and colours I have been imbibing since childhood was truly amazing.
I still remember I used to love getting mehandi as a child (radical, as only girls get mehandi done). Mehandi relies on Henna and Mandala art, below are a couple mandala artworks I found online and used for this project.

This along with a whole lotta motion graphic fun, and some basic patterns allowed me to create the below video.
For the second wedding, which was a direct request by the to-be groom cum professor, I build something with more illustrations and gold. The illustrations were important as my professor teaches the subject. Below is the raw material for this.

For my professor I really wanted to do something he would love. So I went all gold with the artwork and made sure it looked grand.
Thank you for taking out the time to look at my work.
