I want to learn more on animating titles! I have limited experience in aftereffects, therefore I wasn’t efficient enough to justify using it in the Haiku project. I love watching the ‘flat’ animations that are popular at the moment. The graduated movement and bounce that animators are utilising reflect real world physics. I’ll look into using Lynda.com to teach myself more so I have those skills. However this time I used a process I am familiar with. I developed the title in illustrator and imported it into the premiere project. I then used keyframes in the transform:crop effect to reveal the syllables as a person would sound them out. However, I know that the sequence could have been further developed and refined to make the titles pop more and compliment the footage so the colour wasn’t interrupted as much. It’s practice I suppose.
