Bridging past and present, the film pairs rare archival assets with modern footage using composed static frames and tactile Super 8/VHS transitions to reflect community heritage and institutional evolution. Seamless pacing ensures a cohesive narrative, grounded by kinetic typography interwoven with the building's facade geometry to symbolize cultural roots and forward momentum.
Starting with visual research and palette curation in Milanote, I developed style frames and asset cutouts in Illustrator and Photoshop. In After Effects, I engineered subtle parallax treatments, tactile Super 8/VHS texture overlays, custom posterize-time cadence, and fluid camera transitions to achieve an intentional, filmic rhythm.
