MOTION GRAPHICS



I was sat at home flicking through the channel's, and this title sequence grabbed my attention..
Couldn't find it on YouTube, so the link will have to do.. also includes info about the designers..


Another video that caught my attention because its different.. The characters and the text are being drawn out and said at the same time.. think its rather clever..

I have put this animation together using after effects.. nothing in particular. Just experimenting with posiion, opacity, rotation etc..

KINETIC TYPOGRAPHY







The colours used in this animation work well. The contrast between the dark brown and pastel yellow. Also, when someone else speaks, the type is much smaller in comparison to the man shouting. It's also in a different colour.

The type is too big for the screen, but you are still able to understand what is going on, as the guy is speaking at the same time.

There is a lot of movement with the words, which has made me think more about what I could do to my animations.


What I like the most about this animation, is the way the letters are expanded and used as the background almost.
It makes the frame interesting to look at, when the letter rotates, gets bigger, stays where it is, and smaller writing is added next to it.

I think I will definitely use this technique in my silent movies, or try! 


I like how they have the scrunched paper in the background, with the black and red lettering.
The letters appear from part of the frame and get larger when said.



I really like how this flows. Especially the beginning with the dynamite.. gasoline part.
