The Scientist

Exploring kinetic typography and motion graphics

Written in 2014, animated in 2016, then assembled in 2020

Made with After Effects, Premiere, Audition, & Trapcode Particular

This project took three weeks over six years. Whoops.

 

Scribbled down first thoughts in December 2014.

 
 
Lots of keyframes in After Effects. I later re-did all animation during March 2017.

Sound foley added in FCPX for easier markers while I was getting my Master’s during COVID Class of 2020. The magnetic timeline meant re-timing the wormhole and spray paint sequences was far easier.
