I have been animating an interview by John Lennon, when he spills the beans about his hostility towards the members of the Beatles. His language is venemous and he doesn't hold back.

The animation I have started is a mixture of stop frame and after effects. I have deliberately included quick cuts in the work as a metaphor for John's agitation. This is work in progress. I have started the beginning and the end of the interview. Changing colour hues, tones, scale and perspective on the type in photoshop has been an effective method. Overlaying smooth blended text in after effects contrasts to the raw edginess of stop frame type layouts.
