Type In Motion
This exercise was an introduction to typography and movement to eightprime's audio track "Chameleon Phonics".
I am quite happy with the end result of this exercise, as it was my first time experimenting with typography and I wasn't aware of the large variety of effects. Listening to the audio, I selected a section that was consistent in theme. I felt this could be associated with current environmental issues and headlines.
I initially had a strong idea of what could be used in this clip, and this was implemented at the beginning with newspaper articles and text. However, continuing the exercise, I lost track because I hadn't planned for the whole 30 seconds; something I have learnt is very important for a successful presentation.
This clip could be further improved by experimenting with transitions. I didn't feel comfortable using them at the time as there were already a lot of options for text animation. I should have maintained one style, rather than being text-heavy at the beginning and then using numbers in the middle. However, I believe I have succeeded in interpreting the audio and conveying a theme.
