De-Stress Type Animation

In this motion piece, I had to find a quote of cultural or personal interest from global news or culture and create a 30-second kinetic piece that incorporated typography, image, and sound in the communication of it’s message. The audio I chose comes from a video by notable Youtube personality, Michelle Phan. In this video, she explains the  importance of de-stressing and taking time out for yourself. Using typography, I wanted the words she spoke to come to life and connect to one another in a smooth and effortless way.

The goal of this project is to explore the unique potential of combining traditional design attributes of composition, typography, color, shape, depth, tension, contrast, etc. joined with the time-based attributes of pacing, rhythm, and sequence.
