The idea was that the music symbols were a city skyline but I didn’t think it showed that it was a guided tour as well as a footprint does.

I eventual ended up coming up with an idea of using a foot and headphones as it was simple enough and visually looked good.

The lower images are of app icon trends, again they’re also quite simple yet bright and eye catching

For this I’ll be creating a Visual Brand Guide for a fictional Phone Application that would act as a “walking tour” where your phone emulates a guided tour. The tours would be based on musicians, taking you through areas of significance to said musicians including birth locations, inspirations, ect.

Type Motion - 20 Second Sting For the 20 second sting I decided to have the letters arranged so they would in a sequence spell out the words "Type Motion" Yes again Vimeo only seems to let you upload 1 HD video a week without having to pay £50 a year so I’ll have to try uploading these via Youtube instead.

Type Motion - 5 Second Sting. I've explored and experimented with so many effects and motions, although for the 5 second sting I decided to focus on one of my favourites, Liquid motion. I'd also spent the most time learning how to perfect it so it seemed like it was the best of the choices.

Surprisingly 2001: a Space Odyssey has only just had its first edition in Brazil, although the films existed there for years. Although their first edition is beautiful and so clever. When the sleeve is removed the book is revealed to represent an artefact from the film. Its a shame this edition has only and will only be released in Brazil.

I've decided to go for a "liquid motion" style for one of the Stings, so I spent this morning just playing around with different settings and trying to get an understanding of how to create this effect. It was surprisingly a lot more easier than i expected it to be.

The way the type is introduced into the scene and then disappears works so well, this is something I might try experimenting with this for the 5 second sting.

Handdrawn Kinetic Typography Research This is one of the best examples I've found so far of Handdrawn kinetic typography. This is the plan for the 10 second sting. I've also started to look into how to create something like this, and although it seems very time consuming the final outcome looks quite amazing and will definitely be worth it.

And finally for the shorter 5 second sting, i'm thinking of creating a very basic piece inspired by how i think a typeface would move, maybe even how it would grow into its final form or even decay.

So far, so good! The idea is that all the work will be printed onto "postcards" separate from the actual book, but will all be contained together with a Kraft Card Sleeve. My initial idea was to print the "postcards" onto 400gsm glossy card, but the printer won't take 400gsm, therefore I'm going to experiment with gluing 180gsm glossy paper onto 400gsm cards and leaving under a press until dry so it doesn't bubble or bend due to moisture.
