Typeface , TOP TEN

Although it is quite un-readable and i think it is in a foreign language , i like the dynamic shapes within the letters. i am going to use a typeface similar to this in my sequence. 

TOP TEN

Looking at some graphics posters for inspiration for my title sequence - space themed. 

i really like the typeface's chosen in these posters.

The rustic , collage style goes really well with the sc-fi modernistic fonts.

Collage themed motion graphics

I have decided to use bits of collage in my title sequence and idents.
I have been looking at different styles of collage used within motion graphics and different moving images.

Here are some that i look a fancy to...

INSPIRATION/

The Wave Pictures - Sweetheart from Ben Reed on Vimeo.

Piece from Selfburning on Vimeo.

Forget Me Not from Mew Lab on Vimeo.

MAD 1 + N from Francesco Brunotti on Vimeo.

Live in Space from Martha Cactus on Vimeo.

Audio

Some interesting audio choices in this piece of motion graphics , it is mechanical like, with tweeks and bursts of sound now and again. It is strange but i like it, something like this could work well in my idents as i am focusing on space and science.

Title Sequences

Beginning to research into space and science title sequences for inspiration.
I found this title sequences inspiring , audio wise also! I like the way the planets have images of different scientific moments , this is something i could consider as i am going to use images from the most read articles in my title sequence and maybe indents.

Here is different approach used for a Horizon Title sequence for a BBC documentary called 'playing god' about a scientific discovery of a new species of spider is also interesting and inspiring in terms of audio and motion graphics. Although there is alot of film used throughout, there is small pieces of motion graphics to do with cells multiplying and the television cracking up 'this creates a creepy scientific feel to the sequence' I also like the un-nerving noises with voice over is effective and could suit my title sequence. 

Font considerations

The use of fonts in this is something like the use of fonts i want to include in my idents.
The constantly changing and diverse typefaces clash but suit the style and words in the song.
Also the flicking screen changes are cool , i like how it chops sharply to the next typeface.

IDENTS TOP TEN

This ident interested me , its promotion for a note book called Scribe.

Everything in the clip is paper and scribbles , i kind of want to include and element of this style in my top ten ident, maybe sketchy line drawings on lined paper , with a layered effect over text and images could look interesting. 

MOTION GRAPHICS

A plexus  is a tangled network structure in biology. The plug-in creates something similar in 2D or 3D in After Effects. Plexus works with AE lights and paths with custom and shaded sprites like below... cool!

MOTION GRAPHICS

A cool bit of motion tracking by NEMO.

Love the sound and atmosphere created by the film shot!

Although these prices of motion are unachievable in the time and soft wear i have ,

I would love to use this as inspiration for my moving sequence in after effects.
