Challenge
Elijah Thomas needed a visual experience that could support the story and emotion of his song during a live performance. The challenge was to combine lyrics, narrative elements and animation in a format that remained clear, engaging and readable on a large stage screen without distracting from the artist.
Solution
I developed a custom lyric-based visual sequence designed specifically for the live performance. The concept combined animated typography, hand-drawn visual elements, AI-generated imagery and cinematic transitions to create a narrative that followed the song’s progression. The final visuals were optimized for stage screens, using strong contrast, clear typography and controlled motion to complement the performance and strengthen the connection between the music, the artist and the audience.
