Further AfterEffects Experiments A video experiment that explores typography further as well as camera movements. This was trialling initial ideas I have for my actual motion, working through the weapons then providing hard hitting facts and stats. A good trial and a sign of my development through After Effects.

Research into a Possible Motion Graphic on Wikileaks This contributes to research into visual already present about the Wikileaks saga.

Typographic Motion Piece This is a typographic motion graphic that depicts some lines from the film ‘Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels’. The way the texts moves dynamically to form an image is really appealing. Forming a message through and image and communication through written language. The text also relates to the written language moving to symbolise a word.  All part of the...
