Friday Inspiration for July 16th, 2010

// July 16th, 2010 // No Comments » // Inspiration, Motion Graphics

Next week, I’ll be in Malawi, Africa. So don’t hold your breath waiting for a Friday Inspiration, unless I  find a lion with a 3G tracking transmitter strapped around his neck that I can hack into.

For this week’s inspiration, I just found this today. Quite a little gem of animation here. A trip through film history, graphically representing 35 films in 2 minutes. See how many you can spot, and go to the creator’s vimeo page and read the comments to see what’s there. Distilling concepts and visuals down to simple shapes that give us immediate understanding is something I find fascinating. This is about as good as it gets.

Children of Eden Promo Video

// June 21st, 2010 // No Comments » // Motion Graphics, Video

Here is a just-completed promo video for our church’s production of Children of Eden (with a sermon series to go along with it!) The creative process for this one was fun. We originally concepted a video showing rehearsals and actor interviews, but due to VBS needing the stage, we had some concerns about capturing the epic, Broadway-esque scale of this. So simply using text, a jungle photo with some leaves and branches thrown into 3D space, and the graphics from the official logo/promo poster, we decided to create something that felt more like a movie trailer. And really, this is the only song in the soundtrack that has the right “feel”, so I edited 3 segments of music together to make this spot. We’ll still be shooting some rehearsals for a bonus promo that will go online, and be mentioned in the pastor’s weekly email to the congregation. This was created in After Effects and Photoshop.
