  • How to add sense of speed without adding speed?

    Posted by Val Volfson on November 16, 2015 at 3:54 am

    Hello everyone,

    I am making a client animation/infographic that has lines connecting to dots signifying the connection between two aspects of this business.

    The song and most of the animation has already been chosen but now the client feels like the start of the video feels slow. I was wondergin what are some techniques or visual ements that I cna dd that will create the illusion of speed without actualy chaning the properties of the camera that moves along the shapes.

    thank you.

    A couple of ideas:

    1) Motion blur with excessive settings, 360 degrees or more.

    2) Add particles closer to the camera that pass by faster.

    3) Sound effects implying speed (“swoosh”).
