Kinetic Type: Philip Glass Kneeplay

Motion design of the lyrics to Philip Glass' "Kneeplay", an eclectic song from his opera "Einstein on the Beach".
Learning Outcomes:
I worked with pacing to connect each phrase with the progression of the song. I learned how to set flags to mark my pacing of each lyric during the edit process. I learned how to give "life" or a likeness to type where it becomes alive with motion to match to the beat of the music. I learned what kind of motion makes type emit a certain mood.
