RIT Creative Collision 2026: Motion Graphics Showcase

Creative Collision is an annual three-day event that brings undergraduate new media design and graduate visual communication design students at Rochester Institute of Technology together. Core classes are canceled so student teams can spend all three days quickly building design projects based on a prompt.

For the Creative Collision 2026 theme of “Between Seconds,” ideas collided in wonderful explorations as teams created motion graphics showing their own take on Gravity. The final projects showcased keyframed motion sequences to real-time, camera-driven work in TouchDesigner and vibe-coded multiplayer games. Guest designer, and former RIT new media design student, Greg Herman, a motion designer and filmmaker working in television and Hollywood, mentored students all three days. The event closed with an amazing talk by Herman and a final screening across the new media design and visual communication design labs.
