Copy it and choose Edit > Paste in Place. With the Selection tool, select the frame you pasted the animation into. The empty frame acts like a mask, preventing the animation from showing below the bottom of the picture frame. If you’ve done everything right, it should look like the artwork slides down inside the picture frame without appearing outside of it. Then, with the empty frame selected, choose Edit > Paste Into.Īt this point, it’s probably a good idea to test the animation, using the EPUB Interactivity Preview panel. With the Rectangle Frame tool, draw an empty frame that completely covers the animated art and just touches the bottom of the stroked frame. Move the stroked frame to a new layer above the rest of the content on the page and lock that layer.Ĭut the animated frame with the art in it. The stroked frame should be directly on top of the animated frame, but I’ve moved them apart in the following screenshot just to make things clearer. So at this point you have an empty frame with a thick stroke and the original animated frame. Then select the content in the top copy, delete it, and click the trash can in the Animation panel to remove the animation. Add a thick stroke and small drop shadow to the top copy. Set the Speed and Opacity to None.Ĭopy the animated frame to the clipboard, then choose Edit > Paste in Place. Place the unshredded copy of the art in your layout and apply an animation with the Fly Out Bottom preset.
You should use a file format that supports transparency so you can see anything behind the artwork (like a background photo) through the shreds. You can see the finished result in a Publish Online document here.Ĭreate two copies of the artwork you want to use, one normal and the other “shredded”. It even stops short of finishing, just as the real prank did unexpectedly. Seeing the world through InDesign-colored glasses, I couldn’t stop myself from putting together a similar animated effect in my favorite page layout program. His "Girl With Balloon" was originally stenciled on a wall in east London and has been endlessly reproduced, becoming one of Banksy's best-known images.By now, I think most folks have heard of the shredding prank pulled by the artist Banksy. His mischievous and often satirical images include two policemen kissing, armed riot police with yellow smiley faces and a chimpanzee with a sign bearing the words, "Laugh now, but one day I'll be in charge." He began his career spray-painting buildings in Bristol, England, and has become one of the world's best-known artists. The auction and partial shredding are shown, as is the work being taken off the wall at Sotheby's and carried out of the room.īanksy has never disclosed his full identity. People milling about sipping Champagne and nibbling hors d'oeuvres are next up, including some standing in front of the painting. The nearly 3-minute long video is titled, "Shred the Love, the Director's cut." It shows hands and a hooded figure (Banksy is fond of hoodies) constructing the mechanism in a studio space, then it rolls on to the outside of Sotheby's before the auction. The end of the new video notes: "In rehearsals it worked every time." A complete shredding of the same design is then shown. The canvas was shredded to right above the girl's head, leaving the balloon intact. The partial shredding drew speculation that the act was a stunt to increase the value of the painting of a young girl reaching for a heart-shaped red balloon. The act shocked the crowd, but the winning bidder, a European collector, went ahead and bought it anyway for $1.4 million, according to the auction house. The video shows the famously anonymous artist constructing the shredding mechanism inside an ornate frame and pushing a button in a black box to activate the destruction at Sotheby's in London earlier this month. Banksy posted a new video to his website Tuesday implying the partial shredding of his "Girl With Balloon" at a London auction was supposed to have been complete.
