the above shows a really broad example of motion graphic all of which are inspiring. 

Taking a brand which sometimes can be seen as quite boring, thinking about it, it is what it is. This video takes a closeup and by adding graphics makes it seem so diverse and engaging. 

Making Graphics move like this is really amazing and makes me want to be able to re produce the work.

Using music seems to connect the graphics together with the video i really like this soundtrack and it help make the movement shout out its meaning so much better.

By keeping the colours strictly minimal it helps make this piece look alot more professional and appear to have alot more meaning.

This video is an all time favourite, amazingly narrated and the animation which is used is brilliant. Everything works so well and makes you enter a new world where you don't need to think to hard just watch and be happy.

This is everything i love about info graphics. The bold colours, realistic feel and then thrown into a video it replaces the need of a poster having a long layout and extends it for a whole 30 seconds worth of video which works perfectly and is really inspiring.

A simple and really nice example of motion graphics which will help as reference in the future.

This is a brilliant video of liquid in a jar and expanding its really worth the watch.

This is a really nice video about creating your own shoes. It takes a graphic approach by letting you watch someone create their own design.

Design for Screen

The music in this works really well with how the graphic flows making you feel closer to the video. I found myself immersed into it and couldn't leave until it was over.

A really moving video which made me think about things and the way i look a my graphic design life and want to achieve more. A really good example of how graphics can make words have a greater meaning.


A really mixed bag of cool effects which i would love to understand and be able to re-produce.

A really well put together piece with a hint of info graphics thrown in. It had me watching for the whole time so i decided to include it.

Again like the last a bundle of motions which i could see being really easy to use with graphics and type to give it extra depth and meaning.

For an item which many people would consider to be boring or work related this has pulled a whole new meaning and mindset to the product all by showing it preforming some tasks which it is used for almost every day.

This was a great photoshop which created paint tubs to look like pantone.

Info graphics which are designed to fill your screen and show more information when being scrolled down is something i have always enjoyed. This is a great example of how to lay it out. The use of colour is really vibrant on my iMac screen.


I have always been a massive fan of pixel art. I have never known how to really do it but would love to learn this is everything i grew up with, the colours shapes all link back to older times where 3d renders where not used. This is a brilliant and well known example of how it should be done.
