FINAL PROJECT: Title Sequence

TOPIC: Style Frames

“Style frames are the visual representation of what a motion piece will look like prior to animation. A style frame is a single frame or image that depicts the look-and-feel of a motion design project. From a business perspective, they help win pitches for commercial projects.”

“Ideally, a style frame is both beautiful and functional. Style frames present ideas, emotions, and narratives associated with a concept. Although style frames are singular moments of a motion piece, each frame can propel a story forward.”
