I think my favorite of all the kinetic typography projects was Julia’s because I liked the way she had her words and the animation pictures too. I really liked the song . I also liked how Kayla did hers because of the wolf constantly moving and also the way she had the stars twinkling in the background throughout the whole song, I thought that was really neat. Honestly seeing everyone else’s made me feel horrible about mine because theirs was so out there and had so much going on and great songs and mine was so simple and no animation just words and also the song I picked was “happy birthday” because it was a song I though wouldn’t be hard since I barely knew how to use after effects in the first place but I know I need one for my portfolio next year so at some point i’m going to make a better one. I didn’t learn to much this week on my poster contest project because I didn’t start until later in the week because I thought i was going to have more time to go out and take pictures but it ended up being due friday so I had to go ahead and use something that I already had. What I originally had planned was to go this weekend and get some pictures of my nieces playing around together and laughing so I could use that to be to be like you can make a difference by loving everyone or something along the lines of that but I didn’t get a chance so I ended up using a picture of my little cousin that I already had and tried to blur the background out and just have him smiling where you could see “you can make a difference” and also added a quote at the bottom that says “in a gentle way, you can shake the world” that I really liked. I didn’t use any tutorials but I tried out different fonts to see which ones looked better on the poster and with the words I was using. I looked at most of the winning posters to get an idea of what would be good to use. My meaning behind my poster is that you can make a difference by raising your kids to be nice and kind people.
