Brief 4 | Motion Text Animation Final

Here's my final animation.
After alot of frustraion and angst and wanting to throw my computer out of my 16 storey window, I've settled for this. I don't think I'll be able to do much better.



Phew!! All done!

Brief 4 | Examples

Here are some more sourced videos I've found off Youtube that I really like.







Really like the spotlighting in this last video. Going to try to attempt something like that. Looks good.

Brief 4 | More concept ideas

Here are just some images that i've found of the band's album art which I want to adapt into the concept for my animation.

I want to have a similar colour theme and similar weighted type, with a quite angular shapes to aid in creating the structured movement I'm trying to aim for.




Not really sure how I'll use this last image, but I really like it.

Brief 4 | Text Layouts

Just been playing around with some of the layouts for the text in the animation.

Think i'm just going to have the animation very heavily text based and use the movement of the text as the main feature.

Here are some of the layouts i've been playing with:

This first image, is of the first verse of the song. I want to have the camera effect pan across the multi-directional words as they appear in the frame in time to the music.



Just a little layout of the song title, not sure if i'll have enough time to get to the chorus of the song, so I'll have to wait and see.


This image is for the second verse, which has very truncated, stacatoed text and rhythm. I want to have the repeated text 'they call me' growing out of the sides of the 'names'.

Just some rough ideas for the layout. Still needs some thought.

Brief 4 | Motion Text Animation

With this brief I really want to do something a bit retro and funky. Have a bit of fun with it.
I think I'll probably use the song,

"That's not my name" by the Ting Ting's

It's got a really great beat that i'm hoping will be slightly easier to sync the text too. Hopefully.

Brief 3 | Aftereffects Animation Final

Rather sad in comparison with the others, but its my first time using Aftereffects, and i've learnt alot from this.

Brief 3 | Research

Here's some more videos I really liked:



Love, love, love the ink on parchment look!
