Philip talking heads
Five vertical talking head edits of one speaker at a whiteboard and a desk, cut for short form with word by word captions and on screen type.
Overview.
One speaker, two rooms: a whiteboard and a desk. Each edit keeps the talking head as the backbone and uses captions and type to carry the points.
What was made.
- Five vertical edits from talking head footage
- Word by word captions

The edit.
Design choices.
- Captions sit on the speaker's words, so the video works with the sound off.
- Key phrases get their own animated type, such as the large word treatment in the sixth edit.
- Whiteboard writing is shown in frame, with graphic callouts added over the top.
