A really interesting video using a technique called Still Moving—similar to stop motion animation. The soundtrack works really well to build upon the atmosphere of the video.

A really charming and well produced short about working as a Projectionist lovingly created by a man who thoroughly loves his job working at London’s Screen on the Green.

I saw the new BBC trailer for Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic today and it’s really well shot. I’d love to produce something like this to promote my yetis.

Having been to NYC at this time of year it gets pretty damn cold. Despite the cold it seems to bring smiles to innocent commuters.

All part of the No Pants Subway Ride 2010.

After a lot of hard work and late nights I finished working on video for FormFiftyFive interviewing Fred Deakin. Creative director of Airside and one half of Lemon Jelly, Fred Deakin is a design and music hero of mine so it was a pleasure to be given the opportunity to get some of my questions answered by Fred and work on editing and motion graphics for the final video.

There’s more information over at FormFiftyFive and would love to hear your comments and thoughts. We’ve also lined up our next interview with the very talented illustrator, Hellovon. I’m on to work on this next interview which should be very interesting.

I’ve been pretty tied up the last couple of weeks working on FormFiftyFive’s latest video interview with creative director or Airside and half of the band Lemon Jelly—both of whom I’m huge fans of. So it’s been a really great chance to work with great assets and get back into some motion graphics and video editing that I enjoy every time I return to.

Here’s a quick sneak preview at one of the animated intros for FFF, which unfortunately doesn’t look like it’s going to make the cut. Keep checking my blog and FormFiftyFive as the interview isn’t far away from being released.

I mentioned a while back about Typographic Tours of London that I went on back in March of this year. Whilst going through some of my bookmarks I came across this video that pretty much sums up the tour in about 15 mins. It’s an interesting video if a bit of an abridged version of the tour – which I cab highly recommend.

The video was created by Michael Bojkowski a very talented Australian designer with a stunning folio to boot and an interesting blog called Linefeed. One of the best bits about Linefeed for me is, Michael’s, usually monthly, video ‘Reading Lists’ where he takes the time to go through the magazines sitting on his desk in the form of a visual round up with commentary. Being a massive fan of well designed publications, the videos immediately struck a chord with me. Here’s one below to see what the fuss is all about.

Excellent video for U2′s latest single, beautifully realised in this cell shaded animation. Directed by David OReilly, designed by Jon Klassen, animated by Chris Hutchison & Steve White. It reminds me a lot of the good times spent playing the classic Game Cube title, Legend of Zelda: The Windwaker which adopted the same cute and adorable style of art direction.

I caught this excellent parody of the Catch Me If You Can title sequence on The Simpsons a couple of weeks back. You can watch the full Simpsons Catch Me If You Can parody or watch the original title sequence over at The Art of Titles.

The original title sequence for Catch Me If You Can has to be one of my favourites, directed by Kuntzel+Deygas and produced by Nexus Productions. Whilst researching both title sequences, I also came across another one of my favourite title sequences for Thank You For Smoking by Shadow Play Studio. If you’re interested in the title sequence for Thank You For Smoking check out these stills on flickr.

Just a quick update, as I know it’s been a while. I’ve added a recent motion video project for FormFiftyFive, documenting the making of issue 1 of 6×10. Find out more about 6×10: Making of on my portfolio website, http://www.sansgil.com.

Finally, I’ve been swept up in the whole Twitter malarkey particularly since I last posted. In that same vain, I’ve resurrected my older Tumblr which I think may well be the new Twitter-come-blog. Expect to see this blog transferring to Tumblr very soon.
