Okay, I’ll admit, I’m kind of a dum-dum when it comes to graphics.
I’ve just never been that “technical” of a filmmaker.
When all my friends in college were learning motion graphics to become better video editors and get more corporate work, I was off learning how to shoot documentaries from different mentors.
Then when came time for me to edit my own film and I realized the importance of this third medium, I felt like the kid who missed a few too many trigonometry classes: lost.
But now there’s good news! The graphics gods have made super simple tools that even dum-dums like me can use to spruce up their stories.
Motion graphics can be incredibly effective by themselves or combined with audio and video.
In this episode, I talk about the best ways to use text graphics, animation, infographics, and subtitles. Graphics can help to convey a story even when the viewer is missing a key element, like sound or human characters.
As social media becomes one of the leading platforms for storytelling, graphics will become more and more handy. Whether a graphic is used to convey meaning or balance visual composition, every graphic MUST have a purpose.
Listen in to learn simple ways to use graphics, and bump your visual storytelling to the next level!
Peace and Love,
