What was this for?
This was a trailer for the atmospheric puzzle game keeper, which is about a lighthouse and a sea bird who go on an unexpected journey to the center of their island. 

What did I do?
I worked on this project from ideation to finish. The first task was to come up with a design that integrated the text into the footage. I made a subtly multi-colored text that would play with the lighthouse's light or other elements in the foreground. The text cards utilized rotoscoping, tracking, and AE effects. 
 

Design Process

Initial Design Tests

I designed a few option for the "integrated" quote. I made a mix of colorful to plain text options that tracked along the lighthouse's path. The exact look was very footage dependent, but would have the same design formula (slight color matching, roto, font, and tracking).
