I was introduced to this wonderful concept while randomly browsing around YouTube. It is basically taking the dialogue from anything, like a scene from a movie, a song or a trailer, and making a typography video out of it. The words are imposed in a very dynamic way, with the typography used to show the flow of the script.
I really love this new art form. I am a bit of a typography junkie (but a not a worshiper of it, like many professional designers), but the main reason I like these is because they give a new dynamic element to the script of a movie.
Below are some of the best ones that I have found on YouTube. Most of these videos are made in Adobe After Effects.
I love this opening credits sequence from Trainspotting. One of my all time favourite scenes and dialogue from a film. The typography suits it perfectly - it can almost be used as an alternative opening sequnce for the film :)
I love Snatch, and I love how this captures the fast-paced Brit humor.
Very nicely done. Very original, and captures the taut tension from the scene.
One of my all time favourite scenes from a movie.
Very dynamic, and has a nice fast pace - in tune with the original dialogue.
Just like this because it is Requiem for a Dream :)
This has to be my favourite out of all of them. Even though the font is not very readable, I think it goes very well with the theme of the film.
I love this one, because of the clever way the Facebook 'f'' comes up at the end.

Love love these, something so ordinary like a line from a movie can be turned into something so wonderful!
ReplyDeleteReally liking the facebook and haha i always love that line from "Snatch!
btw how's the boardwalk empire tv show?? is it worth watching?
I'm so glad I found this wonderful concept on YouTube.
ReplyDeleteYeh, the Boardwalk Empire show is pretty good. Some people say they find it boring, but I find it really good and interesting. Plus, since you love vintage clothes, I think you will love it, coz it's full of wonderful vintage outfits from the 1920s.
