Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): Sounds of the Seen, Part 1 by Erik Wollo.
Because of my jaunt in Hollywood yesterday, I thought it would be fun to show a little something I know about. It's called kinetic typography, which plays very well into Feature Fun Friday in many ways. Kinetic typography is moving text, but created in such a way as to evoke a particular emotion. It's very cool. It's an animation technique, usually done in Communication Design or Interactive design classes. The one I was going to show you was the 8 Rules from Fight Club, but then I decided to show you one of my favorites - V's introduction of himself from V for Vendetta (no worries; only G-rated language here). Not only is it an amazing display of kinetic typography, but the speech itself is an incredible play on the letter "v" which is something I love. Words, books, and movies, the perfect combination for an excellent Feature Fun Friday. Have a great weekend everyone!
Such a great movie! One of my favorites. That's one of my favorite speeches in a movie, simply because the astounding alliteration. The brains of those writers had to be going double-time! lol Something about V reminded me of "Alice in Wonderland" for some reason. Is that weird? Probably. lol
ReplyDeleteI really wonder how long that took to write. And how many times they when through the V section of the dictionary. :)
