Entry Description

In this music animation, Sam illustrates the meaning of the song through his expressive graphics.

Judge 1

Positives: You have some very nice text animations. The timing of the events is almost perfect. Very clever transitions and introductions of text.

Improvements: The biggest problem is with the kerning of your text. Check the letter spacing and make it consistent.

Judge 2

Positives: Enjoyed the amount of different uses of the words presented, like one will fade up or down, and another will fall, and matching what was said in the lyrics with the animation. Pacing was near perfect, was never board, or wanted it to move faster or slower.

Improvements: Rather confused about the random and unnecessary use of live action at the beginning, as it never returns to it again. A few instances where the words are half cut off in the screen was distracting.

Judge 3

Positives: A great job of animating typography. Nice pacing. I like the times you play with a single word within the shot. Good sizes of lettering.

Improvements: Not much really. Perhaps more work with the non-letter images.
