    Exercise 3: Kinetic Typography (10%)

    In short, the song I chose lost the vote count. The song with the most votes ended up being The Weekend by BIBI. Before starting to work on the kinetic typography animation, we did a short briefing on which part we are going to do. We also decided on the overall theme of the animation. I chose to work on the chorus since chorus is usually the most memorable part of a song.

    To begin, I tried messing with camera movements on the first 2 line of the chorus.

    Then I added more movements by using null objects to direct the camera to different angles. I also added hanging telephones to reference the original music video.

    Then I added more movements by using more null objects and cameras on the second part.

    Fig. 3.2, Second part

    The last part is quite simple, I used an image of a figure falling to match the "falling into the deep end" lyrics by using transform and make it look as the figure is falling.

    For the repeating parts, I just reused the first line over and over. Here is how it turned out
