STORYBOARD
Client: Proposed project for VICE to accompany a YouTube series titled ‘Empires of Dirt’. VICE is youth oriented, bold and direct in their branding.
Ask: Use motion design effects to create a video using vintage still photos. This video was meant to accompany and reinforce the audio track explaining the negative aspects of British colonialism in India.
Deliverable: A graphic video clip to hint at and advertise the web series.
Design: Imagery was limited based on the time period being discussed, so I wanted to use color blocking and parallax effects to bring the images to life and highlight specific parts of the photo in time with important lines of audio. I wanted to utilize the colors of the Indian flag, but I altered the saturation of each color to create a bold, more unexpected palette.
