Digital Love by Daft Punk Kinetic Typography
Research
About the song
Digital Love
Created by French electronic duo Daft Punk as a third single for their 2001 album “discovery”.
I remember the first time I heard this song in back in 2002 which aired on MTV. And my first impression is, what a powerful song created based on a dream of a guy who is in love with a girl and I this dream, there’s a lot of beautiful things happened and a very sweet , memorable and how he wish this could happened to him everyday in reallife.
And to me this is one the best song created by them as the melody created could transport listener feelings toward other own personal dimension, their own lyrical imagination and how a lot of people who hear the song can relate to it.
1 minute 50 second.
Kinetic typography
Before started my kinectic typography, I started to plan of what type of concept I would like to do for the background so, I watch and studied some of the kinetic typography of a electronic dance song, so that I could get some ideas and concept. And basically the concept of my own kinetic typography is, I wanted to created like when people watching it, they have a feeling of a dream.
Here’s a few images from the kinetic typography I’ve watched for my research process:
Idea’s and development | using Adobe After Effect
Last night I had a dream about you
In this dream I'm dancing right beside you
And it looked like everyone was having fun
The kind of feeling I've waited so long
Don't stop come a little closer
As we jam the rhythm gets stronger
There's nothing wrong with just a little little fun
We were dancing all night long
The time is right to put my arms around you
You're feeling right
You wrap your arms around too
But suddenly I feel the shining sun
Before I knew it this dream was all gone
Ooh I don't know what to do
About this dream and you
I wish this dream comes true
Ooh I don't know what to do
About this dream and you
We'll make this dream come true
The first thing I do is copy the lyric from “http://www.sing365.com “.
Ideas & Development
Basically the concept of my own kinetic typography is, I wanted to created like when people watching it, they have a feeling of a dream As like the first time I listened to the song back in 2002. Until now, I still got the same feeling when listening to this song.
The typeface I use for this song is Aharoni. I use it because the characteristic of aharoni defines memories and the design are perfectly constructed for my kinetic typography. Before this I wanted to use another typeface which is sams’town. But it is just unsuitable because of the characteristic are more to nightclubs and cabaret.
Image shown below is a different between those 2 font type.
the final font type I choose for my kinetic typography
aharoni
the first font type I use which is unsuitable
Sam’s town
IMAGE SHOWN BELOW IS THE COMPOSITION USING AHARONI FONT TYPE.
Background
The background I added a starburst In the simulation effect preset. It will give a dreamy like expression and moods towards the typography with an additional glow effect that has been applied for the starburst
