I love a good reel. Some day I’ll do one of my own. Some day.

2009 REEL from // Videodrome on Vimeo.

Here’s another great piece of stop motion goodness. This time it’s from the students and faculty at Brigham Young University who created the opening titles for the Typophile Film Festival 5. More information at Bit Rebels.

the Meaning of Life – stop motion from Vytautas Alechnavicius on Vimeo.

Not exactly the kind of design work I aspire to, but still, it’s very impressive. Check out Lysergid.

Some good local work in motion graphics.

If I could go back and start my career over I think I’d get into motion graphics/design. There’s so much I admire about this form of art. It takes all of the basic design principals and commercial considerations I apply in my current job and adds movement, timing and sound to bring it to life. All of this without the technical constrains plus you have the viewer’s undivided attention (at least when they click play). I guess the skill is in keeping them until the final frame, or better, replaying the movie.
