kenitic tyopgraphy assignment

BTW i am sorry about the terrible video quality I don't know why it did that.

So this is a kinetic typography video called Demons. The song is provided by imagine dragons called Demons. This video was made using adobe flash CS6. So mainly my work consists of the lyrics of the song appearing and disappearing by changing alpha settings throughout the work.

So in my opinion I think I did a good job on this assignment, personally I liked how the words and letters faded in and out throughout the video also I loved how the words and music were so perfectly timed which make the video a little better. Now what i didn't like so much was the lack of other kinds of animations (e.g how letters would enter the scene). also i think i could have added more fonts to make the video much better.

Next off I used the font Bell Gothic STD. I didn't go through the whole array of fonts that were provided which I think hurt my mark a bit because I only used one font throughout the whole video. I think could have used other fonts with the video which would have made my video much more interesting and appealing to the eye.i thought that this font fit the song and and motion of the song.

So some challenges that I came across was that sometimes different parts of the piece didn't work e.g. some words didn't fade in which set me back because I had to go back and figure out how to fix it so that was a bother.

Next what really helped with the success of my video was that I always went back throughout the video to find little mistakes and screw-ups and things that i can add to the video, so that really helped me out with the final product.
