Development | Typography

I've thought about how to display my kinetic type a lot over the last day or so. Some people use the traditional way of doing it by just plonking it on top of a nicely filmed section but others, like the ones inspiring me, use tracking and anchor points in After Effects and other such software to track text to a moving feature on the video. This is something I'd be really excited to explore as most of my shots have moving objects in them that I could track to. Its also something I'd love to learn anyway so it would kill two birds with one stone as they say.

I found this great free tutorial on the internet that I can use if I get stuck over the half term too:

I think by using a mixture of the more commonly seen kinetic type, and the motion tracked form I could create a more dynamic piece with more variety than others.
