I wanted to try something new with After Effects, so I decided to give kinetic typography a go. It's incredibly tedious. A total time consumer. I've spent a while on this on and off. Came back to it yesterday to finish it up. This is just a minute of the original 3 minute video. I chose this video because, well, you have to use words or lyrics (usually) and because it involves parkour. I also think what Daniel Ilabaca is saying is relatively true and agree with his ideas and mindset.
This was how it was made:
-Choose a video (Choose Not to Fall - Daniel Ilabaca)
-Create a background (I chose a white background with a slight vignette)
-Choose a font
-Type EVERY word of the part you're doing as individual Text Layers
-Position, re-size them, etc.
-Set them to appear as they say each word
-Add an effect to the more important words
-Create any interesting graphics etc. in other compositions
-Add other graphics, position them
-Create Null Object Layers and make them the parent layer of sets of words/graphics
-Animate Null Object Layers to move into the frame etc. bit by bit
-Add credits
So yeah. I think that was everything. This is what it came out to be:
