Self-initiated studio study / Title motion

Three disciplines.
One short sequence.

I gave the studio line 12 seconds. Each discipline gets a frame. The final frame brings the words together.

Original typography and abstract artwork. Rendered in the browser. Silent. No client or location footage.

This is a working motion composition in HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The downloadable SVG is a still storyboard. The timing sheet records the edit.

The edit

A small sequence.
Specific decisions.

I kept the message short enough to read on a phone. I used one abstract shape so the typography carries the change.

  1. 01

    Give each idea 3 seconds

    Each scene has a short entrance and a reading hold. The longer phrase breaks over two lines.

  2. 02

    Repeat the reading position

    The words return to the left edge. The changing scale sets the pace without sending the eye around the frame.

  3. 03

    Keep the text alternative visible

    A text overlay specimen sits below the player. The frame list and storyboard carry the same words when motion is disabled.

  4. 04

    Stop on the studio line

    The sequence plays once and holds the last frame. I left out audio, stock footage and extra messages.

The source material

Inspect the storyboard.

Four storyboard panels: Design at 0 to 3 seconds, Content at 3 to 6 seconds, Business support at 6 to 9 seconds, and the complete studio line at 9 to 12 seconds.

Caption specimen

Words with a time code.

This silent study uses written titles. I record the text and timing here so the message can be checked alongside the edit.

From study to a real brief

Start with the message
and the material.

I would confirm the script, source material, format and review steps before I scope a media project. This sample demonstrates title motion, composition and timing.
