10 AR Filters’ Creators You Should Follow | July 2020

This time, we took inspiration from our article from almost a year ago IG’s Hidden Gems, showing you once again our favourite filter creators that don’t have over 10k followers on Instagram yet.
Let’s help them change it! 🔥

Isabelle Udo | @vi.de.or.bit

Isabelle graduated as an experimental film director, so every filter of hers is thought as a story. She has a passion for mimicking nature with technology, and thus plants are one of the main themes of her filters, but there’s much more to her work than them! We’ve actually had a chance to talk to Isabelle last month, so you can learn more from our interview (AR talks | Isabelle Udo).

Eddy Adams | @eddyin3d

Eddy Adams is an experienced 3D motion designer and AR creator. Among his filters, there are many ordered by brands, and his inspirational effects are the proof of his 3D skillset and creativity: in the interview we conducted with him last week he told us that the most important thing about AR filters is not their perfection, but their ability to surprise users. Most of all, he’s an ultimate team player, giving back to Spark AR community just as much as anyone else. Read AR talks | Eddy Adams to learn a lot from his invaluable tips!
