Unreal Engine Motion Graphics - Reading Journey

Unreal engine motion graphics

Let me tell you why I love reading.

My purpose for this project is to combine 2D geometric illustration style with a realistic background in UE.

The story is to share the wonderful feelings of imagining while reading. Then, at the end, the title makes people think about their own journey.
Storyboard

This is my storyboard, which I divided into 3 parts. All scenes will have a title shown on the screen. 

  1. I want to show that before reading, we should sit casually. And the main character shows up, which is the chair. 

  2. we will enter different worlds to express that we can travel to many places through reading. 

  3. As for the final part, I use book-closing as the transition to connect the whole story together. So, all I want to do is to convey the beautiful imagined moment of reading.

Typography

When it comes to typography, I want to mix different fonts commonly seen in printed books. Combining these fonts is like showing a bunch of different writing styles you find in various books. 

It's a way to highlight how each font has its own special look and story, just like the stories they're used in. This idea shows the different styles of writing we come across when we read.

Before reading

Firstly, I want to illustrate the idea that before diving into reading, it's nice to sit back and relax. Basic shapes are transformed into a chair, which becomes the main character in the film. 

Afterward, we'll journey into different worlds to demonstrate how reading can transport us to numerous places.

Chapter1
Read Sun



Chapter2
Read Sea

Chapter3
Read Earth

Chapter4
Read Soul

Chapter5
Here, you can.

Chapter6
Go anywhere.

Ending

For the last part, I use closing a book to tie the whole story together. So, what I really want to do is capture the lovely moments of imagining while reading. Then, at the end, I hope the title makes people think about starting their own journey.
