This is purely awesome. Until yesterday I hadn’t heard of Ramona Falls or their video, but our photographer told us to look them up. I can’t imagine how many hours were spent in AfterEffects, but it was completely worth it.

A Moving MTS Spot
Who here likes motion graphics? If you raised your hand, then count yourselves among us here in the office. Anytime we have the opportunity to make a pixel or two fly across a screen, Tyrone, our resident web/motion graphics expert gets giddy. Of course you wouldn’t realize he’s giddy given that he doesn’t talk much. But you can see it in his eyes. They get this glint in them whenever someone mentions the words “graphics” and “motion” in the same sentence. Unless of course the sentence was “Man, this would be a great project if we could use motion graphics but we can’t so don’t even get your hopes up Tyrone.” Anyhoo, that wasn’t the case with this project. We did use them. And it was fun. And Tyrone was happy.

Fantastic Featurette!
I know I’ve commented on this before, but I am incredibly excited for the new Wes Anderson animated feature, Fantastic Mr. Fox. There has been some controversy surrounding the film (reported feuds between the head animator and the director leaked a few weeks back), but with favourable reviews pouring in and a track record of great films behind him, I think Fantastic will be one of Mr. Anderson’s finest. Head to Apple to see another making-of-featurette to tide you over until the weekend.
SyFy Rebrand
This isn’t the first time I’ve stumbled onto the SyFy material, but it is the first time I’ve seen their beautiful motion graphics. Rebranded by London’s Proud Creative, the SyFy channel boasts a new look and creative energy. Check it out, you won’t be disappointed.
Spam?
I couldn’t resist posting about these ads for SPAM having just discussed the questionable canned meat at lunch last week. Check out Allan Peters‘ portfolio for the fun TV spots, as well as some other great work. Doesn’t it almost make you want to give SPAM another chance?
Phrazes For The Young
I’m not sure what to say exactly about Julian Casablancas upcoming solo album, except for as a long time Strokes fan I’ll buy pretty much anything he’ll put out. I will say, however, I have a real soft spot for late 70’s/early 80’s style motion graphics. Take a peek at the newly released promo video for Julian’s upcoming album and you’ll know what I mean.
Werkstette
Some beautiful photography and an incredibly slick interface.
