Vexercise 4 Drops: Lyrical Play

 
Hi all! It's time for Vexercise 4 (wow, time flies!) This one is focused on working with incorporating lyrics conceptually and as text. (For those of you who did the vfxercise 3 on typography, you got a little taste/head start on this one!) Here are the details:
 

Lyrical play/no lyrics (3 versions):

Produce a 1 minute video edit from your selected source, in which lyrical interpretation guides your shot choice. You could interpret the lyrics literally or metaphorically/suggestively. Once you have completed this video, choose selected lyrics to incorporate creatively as text within the video. Then make a version of this video with the text, but substituting the original audio with a different piece of music that has no lyrics.

Advanced Version: Lyrical Play with Key Frames & Masking
Follow the guidelines for the OG version, but try using key frames for moving text or text masking.

And here are some useful resources & tutorials:

I'm slow to change. I went from iMovie to FCE and only to FCP when I couldn't run FCE on the latest OS any longer.
I did really like figuring out how to do more text stuff - I have always liked opening titles with more movement and this feels like it'll get me out of the rut I was in with that. :)

Same. The demise of FCE was tragic for me. Kind of wandered in the wilderness awhile after that.
