Animated yin yangs, free original 3D animated gifs

Experimental yin yang animation using some different rendering techniques.

animated coolThe top yin yang animations are reflecting a cloudy blue sky, maybe reminiscent of a MSN background and the bottom row using very traditional colour schemes are animated in an unusual manner. The top run is an interesting little experiment. I constructed a shape similar to a lens in the CAD package and then cut out the holes to create a Yin Yang. In Artlantis I applied a mirror surface to it and made the background a cloudy blue sky, a photo taken one Summers day here in Sevenoaks Kent. I rendered it as a TGA image using the background as an alpha channel. In Paint Pro I have set up a batch process to remove the background and leave it transparent and then optimized and made it into this cool little animated yin yang using Jasc Animation Shop

The bottom row has only been uploaded recently, this page looked a little bare with just three blue yin yang animations and Dot brought it to my attention. Two very traditional black and white ying yang's but animated in a most unusual way. The dragon yin yang in the middle could be mistaken for something else altogether but it has an abstract oriental quality about it.

Yin yang, often thought of as the balance between good and evil but really a little more complicated. They always interact and are always changing. The interconnection between male and female, hot and cold, slow and fast, the combinations are endless.
