Animated Type



Spiral iPad Animated Type - Katie Hilton www.khilton.co.uk




Little test of animated type using an interactive iPad app. The animated letters were then put together and re-coloured in After Effects.

I'm been really interested in finding ways to animate type in unusual ways for a while now. I like the idea of animating in camera or by interacting with the type by hand rather than fully computer generated. I often put all the letters together in After Effects however. 

I worked on another project last year for university and came up with some typefaces consisting of cheese, lemons and lights!








Voice of War



This is a response to a uni project based around the theme of 'BANG!'

We were asked to experiment with the word and all it means, then take something from out experiments and produce a final application.

I began experimenting typographically with the wartime poetry of Wilfred Owen, trying to show the sounds and sights described in the type itself.

This evolved into me creating and branding an imaginary exhibition of Owen's work, based on the imagery I created. The video below would be a trailer to advertise the exhibition alongside various posters, leaflets etc

The main text was created in letterpress, then scanned and re-scanned lots of times to create the fractured look. I then strung all the images together and jazzed them up in After Effects to make the video you see before you!






I'm hopefully going to get everything printed properly and photographed very soon so more photos next week!

Ready. Steady. Archive.



Outcome from a workshop with film-maker Sam Meech. We had to create a new piece of moving image with supplied archive footage. I decided to focus on patterns and repetition.

Sorry for the bad quality, I only had access to the low resolution versions of the footage but I hope to acquire the full versions soon!

Dabbling in After Effects once again...

Koral



A response to the song Koral by Oval.
It was a uni project to 'map' the song in our own way. All the elements used here are created by light painting, then the still images animated in after effects.

Summer

Oh and here's my final animation for the 'Summer' project. Finally got it finished after many a toil but it was worth it! My tutors liked it and I have to say (after hating it to begin with) I've come to like it too.

The Doctor

Long time, no speak! I've been immensely busy and this blog fell to the side a tad. But I'm hoping to start it back up properly again. So, onwards!



Some more playing with After Effects. I'm very slowly learning it. This is based on a logo I created last year for a uni project. We had to create a logo for a chracter from TV or film and I always wanted to take it further into an animation so, here it is!

This is the original logo:

First bit of the animation for my summer project...

Night

Experimenting some more with After Effects.

The idea for this came from this picture I took last year using a Zenit E analogue camera. I also manipulated it in the darkroom adding the text.

Step Out of the Gloom

I am attempting to teach myself Adobe After Effects primarily for motion graphics work. This is something I want to feature heavily in my work next year so I'm getting a head start this summer holiday and trying to learn some basics. This is my first attempt at some moving text.
