Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

This is a short kinetic typography film that I created for an art college assignment during my third semester (second year). It is based on Light Yagami's dramatic speech in the final episode of the highly-acclaimed psychological thriller "Death Note."

For this kinetic typography film, I wanted to reflect and exaggerate the personalities of both speaking characters (i.e. Light Yagami and Nate "Near" River) through the effective use of typography, font and colour.

I hope you enjoy watching this short kinetic typography film as much as I enjoyed creating it! Plus, if you are a fan of Death Note yourself and you enjoyed watching the original series, I hope you like my own interpretation of Light Yagami's dramatic speech as much as the original version! Thank you!

-EDIT: Friday 17th December 10- Won Daily 5th Place again? Wow...Now I definitely know that my Flash animation skills are improving! Plus, this is my first ever Flash animation that received an average score of 4 out of 5, which is considerably a very high score! Thank you everyone for your support and feedback!

if a picture is worth a thousand words...

...then how much is an animated picture OF words worth?

yeah.

think about it.

I say nine stars. A lot of emotion from such a simplistic thing. Well done.

<deleted> responds:

Wow! You've hit the nail right on the head there! I'm glad that you believe that it conveys lots of emotion! Thank you for your thorough feedback!

Pretty good dude...

but Kira should have won. Stupid show.

<deleted> responds:

Well, he already won once when he was against L. If he won against Mello and Near, it would be a lot more repetitive.

For text and voice only this is awesome

Title says it all, so here I'll just list villainous anime people who would have gotten further than Light:

-Yoshikage Kira (Bonus points since his name is Kira)
-Johan Liebert
-Sicks

<deleted> responds:

...I...don't think your villainous anime characters list relate to this kinetic typography...

Woah!

WHO ELSE COULD HAVE MADE TEXT THIS EPIC? YOU ARE THE GOD OF THE NEWGROUNDS!

haha.. lame joke, but rly, love Deathnote, and you just made my whole week.

<deleted> responds:

Aw...You flatter me. Nevertheless, I'm glad that you like how I used Death Note to bring anime into kinetic typography.

wow. nice

I really liked how he was all spazing out then at the end you were just like...ughhh no sorry crazy lol 5/5 10/10
