Kinetic Typography

In class we have been exploring typography. Today we were asked to create a Kinetic Typography Flash Video. I researched what other artists were able to create using kinetic typography and discovered some really cool videos.

The Child



This Video amazed me! Everything is made of words! It is crazy that as you look every object and person is a word. The words used for each object are the names of what it is. For example each Taxi car is the word TAXI moving as a car would in this world of words. It is amazing how without reading the words you can tell what the object is.


V for Vendetta


I really enjoyed this video because I felt that the type choice and the way the words moved really captured the emotion of the scene. I love this scene in the movie and feel that by just using words it is equally if not more powerful.

Here is a link to a site that I found many more kinetic typography videos and photos on.

For our assignment we must make a 30 second animation on a video, poem, song. I will post my finished animation when it is done! Until then Bye!
