The official lyric video for Sam Cooke’s “Keep Movin’ On” adopts a 1960s aesthetic, with irregularly shaped blocks, stripes and arrows, and halftone photographs on color. The typeface is more recent, though: it’s Extenda (Zetafonts, 2018). The animated clip was directed by Lucy Dawkins and Tom Readdy at Yes Please Productions, who mention they took the color palette of the original sleeve art and inspiration from vintage soul records designs.
Yes Please also directed a number of other lyric videos for songs by Sam Cooke, see “Shake”, “You Send Me”, “(Ain’t That) Good News”, “Good Times”, and “(Somebody) Ease My Troublin’ Mind”.
