Isometric illustration is the art of using perspective to make flat figures appear three-dimensional. By adding movement to this technique, award-winning illustrator and digital designer Ana Pérez López transforms simple objects into striking animations that tell a story. She’s collaborated with brands like Samsung, Spotify, CNN London, and The New York Times, and has seen her short films featured at festivals like SXSW and Slamdance.

In this online course, Ana teaches how to create isometric animations from start to finish using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects. Discover how to turn a concept into a composition by exploring lines, shapes, colors, and perspective before bringing it to life with dynamic motion. Play with visual perception and express your ideas through animated illustrations.
