They always say you can’t judge a book by it’s cover, but you can judge a film or project by it’s opening graphics.
I mean there is another saying about first impressions, and what is that first 2-10 seconds of title or logo but the first impression of what follows. It should show how much care this project had put into it.
Sometimes though it can be the last thing to worry about, the product should stand on its own and the budget is gone. All that’s left is the change in your pockets, so time to bust out the sharpie and cardboard, that’s all that can be afforded for the opening titles.
Luckily there is Motion Arts Media, It’s a site that allows you to easily create top notch graphics and logo intros on the cheap. There’s easy to use templates, and even lessons on how to find, create, and attach the sequences you need.
They don’t only do graphics and logos either, they offer the ability to create short promo videos as well. What better way to ensure your product or service stands on its own than to show it. These are the kinds of services you would expect from someone who’s worked in the film industry for years.
Jeremy Simpson, creator of Motion Arts Media, has worked with big directors like Spike lee, and has a strong focus and love for special effects, 2D animation, and motion graphics so you know you can get top quality service from him.
On Motion Arts Media there’s also an extensive blog about how to create feeling, find inspiration, and gather statistics so that you can create the best graphics or video for your company. What good are creative tools if the muses don’t…muse?
