This is the 2nd of 4 very short films that I made for my CalArts MFA Thesis in graphic design. My thesis "4 Walks In Newhall: Exercises in Typography & Film" explored how typography can add narrative complexity to a short film. I created 4 very short films based on the same story.
In Film #2 "Intersection" graphic and typographic form intersect with the action in the film. I was interested in animating the type as an extension of the character's movements and in emphasizing the linearity of his path and line of thinking. (2008)
Music Composed by Brian Watson, Starring Jonah Olson.
