FITC TOKYO 2015

TITLE SEQUENCE

Role: Type Animation

via FITC

In its sixth year, FITC consists of presentations from some of the most interesting and engaging digital creators from all around the world. To commemorate FITC Tokyo’s inaugural title sequence Ash Thorp sought to encapsulate the city itself – distilled to graphic form. Ash assembled a team of artists with various disciplines and I was asked to join the team as a type animator.

Aiming to contrast the harmonies of traditional Japanese culture against the backdrop and sensory overload of present-day Tokyo, we meticulously crafted elegant typographic forms to collide with abrasive overstimulating glitch – giving way to a progressive journey where moments of extreme chaos fold into temporary tranquility.


For a more robust breakdown, please view the project on Ash Thorp's site.
