Final Piece


This is my final outcome for the kinetic typography brief.
The person speaking is an incredible photographer, Sally Mann.
In the interview where this piece was extracted from, she talks about how she embraces the chaotic outcomes of her own work.

I used a lot of fade in and blur effects to make it look like the words were slowly appearing and disappearing, like being developed in a dark room. The background image is one of her photographs magnified then slowly zoomed out throughout the clip, the whole image is revealed at the end. I didn't want to use to many different effects like camera movements and whatnot because I wanted it to create a very calm atmosphere

Using after effects was a bit of a pain but now I'm slowly starting to get the hang of it. I wouldn't mind doing this again

Kinetic typography test 1

Here's a quick small test run from the interview in which I animated typography using After Effects.



An interview with Sally Mann was the final choice. I chose to use the bit from 24 to 49 seconds.
