Everything on the list makes up a solid kinetic typography project. Timing, transitions, and font/color are the most important factors to make up an appealing project. Kerning and keeping everything aligned falls into the "easy on the eyes" feeling and also makes the difference between an amateur project and a proffesional one

The Animation article is by Ben Mitchell and it talks about the process and the reputation behind the animator and animator. The article's main topic is the inner workings of the new Disney film Moana. The film was made through multiple different teams working together. The teams include a cg blending team, hand-drawn animation, and the complications that arouse while making the film. Some troubles include the logical and free-spirited side of the characters in the film.
The professional project review is over kinetic typography. The project is made by a youtube channel known as "Pixel Perfect." The project is as followed:
Throughout the project, every text and transition is smooth and weaves into the next. The only part I feel doesn't fit is 46-47 & 1:12-1:25. Other than that, the rest of the project is fairly seamless. I loved the color scheme used in this and all the background changes and I applied these to my project as well. I think the entire project was very well made and every text had an equal effect to them and overall the project is very balanced and very easy on the eyes.
My Project:
My personal project consisted of another kinetic typography project. This project started out as an emagine entry project, however, half way through the song, I began to lose interest. Therefore, the project became a trial project. I used it to try different ideas and techniques. I wanted to add much more color and transitions and effects to the words than earlier projects.
Throughout my project, I learned different skills and techniques to use for future projects. The end product took about 1 week to do and is fairly complete. The pre-editing process took a few days as well. Perhaps the most difficult part of kinetic typography projects is finding the perfect song, speech, etc. The audio has to be easy to comprehend (Same with the text), appropriate for whatever you're doing, and last but not least, it has to be appealing to you.
If I redid another typography project, I would keep the opening sequence of this project, and change some of the images and texts used. I learned how to use more colors and lots more transitions in this project.
I am overall content with my project and am looking forward to any other future projects as I know they will only continue to get better and better.
