Why We Read and Write Poetry

2018

Why we read and Write Poetry was my second motion graphic I had ever made. It was a University assessment where we had to find dialogue to create a text motion graphic too.

The Idea of the Story.
I had just watched Dead Poet Society for the first time in a while and when Robin Williams does his first monologues, I knew I just had to use it. I knew I also wanted it to loop in and out of the mind of this character who is absorbing every single word Robin Williams said.
