Pale Blue Dot

Adam Winnik

Adam attended Sheridan College’s internationally known illustration program, where he spent 4 years growing as a person and artist. It was there that he was introduced to the exciting world of motion graphics. Adam’s interests and artistic goals shifted over the course of his education, and he became aware of the power of political art. As his final thesis, Adam animated an audio snippet of Carl Sagan’s “Pale Blue Dot”. The video won a spot in Applied Art’s 2011 Student Awards issue, has over 240 thousand views online, and has been translated into multiple languages. Adam is constantly trying to learn more computer programs so that he can create without any compromises to his initial vision.
