queer hearts animations - Pixel Art

made entirely in blender

Hearts were rendered in Cycles with a gradient-stepped-linear shading. In the compositor, I made a verticle gradient-stepped-linear for each stripe. Both the shading and this verticle gradient were pixelated and colored in the compositor. And had a boundary added using bluring → pixelating → contrasting the heart silhoutte. The stars were just pixelated voronoi textures with animated seed. Sound was added in Blender’s video editor post-render
