Fleet Foxes - Mykonos
The video for a Fleet Foxes song, making use of animation in a very interesting way. Similarly to work by Saul Bass and so on it uses paper cut outs, however this uses them in a much different way.

Catch Me if You Can Opening Title Sequence
The title sequence for the film 'catch me if you can', a relatively modern film opening yet with a very similar aesthetic to the much older openings by Saul Bass.
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World - title sequence by Saul Bass
More motion graphics by Saul Bass this time with colour...
Saul Bass title sequence - Anatomy of a murder (1959)
Some really amazing motion graphics by Saul Bass, and despite how long ago this was produced it's still a really interesting and effective piece of motion graphics.
Feeling Good, Nina Simone
Kinetic type for Nina Simone's 'feeling good', although some parts of this I feel could be improved there are some really interesting techniques and examples of kinetic type in this video that I think are worth looking at.
Casino Royale Opening (Best Audio)
Probably one of my favourite examples of motion graphics for the introduction to a film. I think this may be down to the music aswell, but as a whole I think this is an amazing opening sequence for a film.

Ross gunter - John Rocha
Task 4 - Specialist production & definitions.
Ross Gunter John Rocha
Business cards for John Rocha by Ross Gunter, a designer who I have posted on my blog on a few occasions. very simplistic, with no in applied to the front surface of the cards, only debossed type. Which I think even for non-designers would create intrigue and make it more tactile. The back is then very simply laid out type in two colurs with a difference in type weight for emphasis.
Tsto - Camino branding
Task 4 - Specialist production & definitions.
Tsto
Camino branding
Very minimal branding by Tsto created almost entirely around a debossing stamp, that creates a relief of the logo, giving the effect that it stands off the page. This comes on an envelope, letterhead and business card and it is a handy size to fit them all nicely. The clean typographic layout accompanying this stamp really accentuates it. Nice!
Generation Press - Not for Commercial Use
Task 4 - Specialist production & definitions.
Generation Press
Not for Commercial use.
Series of prints by generation press under the name 'not for commercial use'. I really love these, and they were as suggested, not used commercially, they were simply wheat pasted around cities with the idea of making things look nicer. I think this would work. really nicely designed and printed.

Generation Press
Branding
Really nice indentity by Generation Press produced on an edge printed stock in what looks like recycled board/paper. Brilliant use of colour, matching the edge of the stock to other items of stationary and applying the embossed and foil blocked logo simply throughout. Beautiful.
