After my last kinetic typography with Brian Boitano I was eager to make more. Because I am such a big fan of zany characters I decided my next one should involve Kreig the Psycho from the video game Borderlands 2created by Gearbox. For this animation my goal was to push myself more than I did with my last kinetic typography. This included use of images, fade effects, and actual character animations. I involved the characters actions because the dialogue is very descriptive in the audio and I wanted to add characters to match the descriptiveness.
The character Krieg is considered a psycho so I chose to used stick figure characters to connect to the simplicity that is going on in his mind. I also wanted my fonts to reflect the context of the dialogue. This involved using rougher, grittier and bolder fonts to emphasize the actions of the characters.
