Firestarter Lyric Video

We had the opportunity to produce a custom lyric video for hip hop/rock artist Manafest‘s new song “Firestarter.” The goal was to create an engaging, high-energy visual that matched the intensity of the song and helped boost YouTube engagement.

 

Creative Approach

To capture the song’s energy, we:

• Used bold typography with motion graphics synced to the beat.

• Designed dynamic animations that shift with the track’s rhythm, creating visual momentum.

• Applied a gritty, textured aesthetic that matched the edgy tone of the lyrics and music.

• Structured the pacing to keep viewers hooked from start to finish, ensuring repeat plays.

 

Results

• The video has surpassed 180,000 views on YouTube, making it one of Manafest’s most successful lyric videos.

• Fans responded in the comments, noting how the visuals amplified their connection to the song.

• The lyric video became an important part of the single’s digital marketing strategy, driving awareness and engagement.

 

Takeaway

This project demonstrates how a well-designed lyric video can go beyond just displaying words on screen — it can become a powerful tool for audience engagement, music promotion, and streaming success.
