Great tips in this one! When these designs shoot across the screen so beautifully during a game, I'm always interested in the thought that went behind them. It's nice to see everything broken down piece by piece.
Sans serif is a good choice for this but not because of ease of readability. There is a reason serif fonts exist and are used when there is dense text, such as in books, or business and legal writing. This is because each letter of a serif font is unique. You can bunch lines of serif text and read it easily. Sans serif letters typically are so similar they even categorize them based on how even the letter weights are. When you create pages of densely packed lines with a sans serif font, it is nearly unreadable. So, use a sans serif large and in title graphics, but mainly for how it works in a design, not because it is more readable.
Showed AE here for the examples, but a number of tools were used for all the examples ranging from 2D to 3D, and designed in PS/AI/etc. You can download the project files to comb through the AE file that was used if you'd find that helpful!

Great video! I spent 7 years with the NHL and college football and this is a great break down. Thanks!
This demystified some things that have been an issue for me over the years 🤗

I agree serif has it's place...I was talking about why sans-serif is dominant in sports graphics because text is typically big and bold.
This was insanely good!
This is gold 🥇 thanks for sharing, Justin

will be there a course or workshop dedicated for sport stdium creen motion design?
So when designing these pieces are they designing specific frames separately and then creating the animations and transitions?
Yes, it's typical to design boards for client approval, and sometimes and animatic, and once approved they move into animation phase.
Sorry I am a completely beginner here, is this AE or any software recommendations for doing this? Thank you so much!

nice ideas but the topics are dense i feel this deserves a full video.. also could have a better narrative structure.. 😅
Thanks Vishnu...what topics in particular were too dense? How would you have laid out the narrative structure better?
Omg! he changed his t-shirt real quick but why?

Hey James, I just downloaded to verify, and it worked for me. You should get an AE project of the black and white elements outlined here.

Yes

Getting 'Off of the sidelines, and into the game' is one of the most tired sports metaphors out there. Your tips, however, are par for the course!
