=Excersize #2: The X Effect=

Haley Anderson
X: When I think of 'X' I think of something creepy like the movie the Ring (idea 2). I also think of searching, or x marks the spot. This leads me to thinking of maps, which leads me to thinking of old paper and typewriters (ideas 3&4). I also think of searching for 'one of many' (idea 5).

Sketching: 2. Turned into Final 3. Did not look as good as envisioned.

media type="youtube" key="GVyvokSKglo" height="344" width="425" 2nd Idea (TV fuzz, Inspired by the Ring :P )

media type="youtube" key="JZWq7ji_dBc" height="344" width="425" 3rd Idea (Typewriter effect, I used timing to replicate the feel of natural typing patterns. I plan on playing with more effects)

=FINAL VIDEO:=

media type="custom" key="5271305" I had 96 x's that I animated with the rain effect, all at different intervals. I tried to use the camera to zoom onto the X that changed colour, but I ended up just scaling the words. I wanted to make the words 'the X effect' fly away and look like my name came out of the jumble of those letters, so I used the flash effect. For some reason the quality is not that great unfortunately...
