Final Kinetic Typography

Hey everyone! Here is my final kinetic typography to Marina and the Diamonds' Savages. I like the message it portrayed in the song so I thought that criteria could make a neat animation. The main fonts I used were Futura, Monotype Corsiva, and Perpetua Titling MT. I also had the opportunity to create various pictures in Illustrator for a specific line. I drew over pictures I found on Google Images.

There were no major problems with the project, although it did take quite a bit of time. But what animations don't take long to make? I hope you enjoy it as I had a lot of fun making it! Link to the final video is shown below.

New Typography Project Started

Hey everyone! I am in the middle of working on a new kinetic typography. I have not completed one in a while, so I thought now would be a good time to start a new one. I started it last week and I am making good progress! However, I still might need to change a few things once I get it finished. The song I am using is "Savages" by Marina and the Diamonds. I am a big fan of Marina, and I believe this song conveys a strong message for our world today.

Here are some Illustrator pics for the typography, storyboards, and a test render. These are just some of the criteria mentioned. I believe the final product is going to be great! The storyboards are what I have so far with the test render. I'll add more when I continue working on the animation.

First, here is a test render. I am liking how it's turning out, but I'll need to change a few things later on. Hope you like it!
