My Why
Hi, my name is Arik Muharrikuddin, In Arabic muharrik means mover, or motion. Instead of becoming a mover of my religion as my father expected with my name, I became a still image mover, which is my passion.
And here I am, as a Seasoned Multimedia Designer, that so far worked in various industries, ranging from
education, retail, corporate, advertising, plantation, production house, print and even digital
media, both local and international projects.
It's been an amazing journey for me, I started from handling illustration work for teenagers badges,
moving on to 2D Flash animation, and moving forward to learning 3D animation, I forced myself to
learn web design and development and also interactivity.
Thank you for coming over.

Showreel Video
Here is a video collection of 2D and 3D animation projects, as well as motion graphics that I have worked on until 2023.
Projects that I have produced from various industries ranging from education, advertising, corporate and plantations. -
Calender Design
The image above is a 2018 Calendar that I conceptualized for an outdoor advertising company, I got the idea of a calendar that I liked when I was in elementary school, where there was a desk calendar that was in my house at that time every tear of the day there were Hadith passages written there.
From there I came up with the idea to make a calendar with a quote of wisdom behind each month of the calendar but with interesting visuals that relate to the quote and also relate to the services of the company.
Here are some visual snippets of the calendar, and many of the company's partners liked the calendar, there were even guests who saw the calendar on our office desk, they asked to take it home as a gift.

Logo Design
Here are some logo designs that I have produced, ranging from home business logos, to LED videotron companies whose logos are still used by them today, several logos for mobile applications, as well as for company aniversary events and some of the companies for which I made logos no longer exist.
All the logos I conceptualized and with a philosophy but still relate to the field of business.

Children Book Cover
An illustration that I made in 2012, for the cover of an English education book where this cover is the last part of the English level learning material. After several draft sketches, this layout design was chosen and I started to cleanup the draft and color it in Photoshop.
Here's the Photoshop rendering and now the book is available at International Language Programs' English courses for children under the age of 10.

Explainer Video
I created this explainer animation at the request of one of my company's business groups. My boss gave me a reference of the style to be made, then I gave further input to make origami and stop-motion style, because it is related to the product that the company produces, which is paper, he agreed.
After some software considerations, we initially tried to animate the cut-outs in After Effects, but the results were unsatisfactory, as well as the limited time to make stop-motion. Finally, we decided to make the animation with 3D Blender, because in 3D we will get the paper texture and render options with #RadeonProRender because with that render option we get maximum results.
For this project, I was responsible for taking care of everything from character concept, modeling, texturing, rigging, animation, rendering, compositing, to editing. -
Commercial Concept
I created this ad idea to participate in the pitching of ad ideas for Bonafont mineral water products.
As a result of their brief, I came up with the idea of summarizing all of their briefs with this simple and straightforward animated video, inspired by the lecture of a Muslim religious leader on TV who gave an example of sin likened to tea in a glass, then what can cleanse is worship which is likened to mineral water filled into the glass by the religious leader.
From that reference, I conceptualized the ad idea to use a glass container as a representation of our body, when we put in clean water at first, but because there are external factors such as the heat of the sun, air conditioners, food, soda, nicotine and drugs then our body becomes dirty, and the hero of all that to clean is Bonafont mineral water.

Commercial Concept
The Sampoerna A Mild ad above is an alternative idea that I thought of, where at that time in 2004 an A mild ad appeared with the theme “If objects can protest, what will they protest?”
The concept of my idea did not appear in the media as a promotional media, I made it myself from concept (visual sketch) to execution (3D modeling of several objects, animation, art directing, rendering and video editing).
