Proposal

This project will take my type specimen/poster from the last module and transform it into a screen-based moving typography experience.

Choice One: Type Activation

Choice Two: Animation

Who is it for?

Graphic design students and typographers interested in type expression.

Any audience exploring how type behaves in movement rather than statically.

Why it matters

Print captures the form but animation can capture the behaviour and personality of the type.

Through the animation I will showcase how the typeface:

  • moves
  • change in weight and structure
  • reacts to rhythm and timing

Quick Animation Plan
