Kinetic Type Video Made with CSS, Webkit and Javascript

We’ve seen many Webkit / CSS experiments, but this one, seriously, it’s an outstanding achievement. We’re talking about a kinetic type videos, one of those you usually see realized with Flash and advanced After Effects techniques. This time, we have a kinetic type video made entirely with Webkit, CSS and javascript. The experiment is called “The Man from Hollywood” and it’s available here.

From the website:

“It’s a Kinetic Type experiment that makes use of Advanced CSS selectors and Webkit CSS properties. The idea is based off of kinetic type videos that are usually created using After Effects, Flash, or other animation tools. Javascript is used, but minimally, really just to turn class names on and off. All of the animations are accomplished using CSS.”

Be sure to check out the screenshots after the break, and see the video in action here.
