If you have 7 minutes of spare time and adore Fred Rogers as much as I do, watch this video clip of Mr. Rogers passionately defending PBS to prevent Nixon from cutting their budget in order to fund the Vietnam War.

Clever ad, I hate mangled toast!
I never knew a rat could be this beautiful, it makes me want one. The colors and bokeh on this photo [...]
Love the idea of creating a video to promote the upcoming typeface Catacumba. I really like the regular and italic weights, it very much evokes a cheesy spooky feel without resorting to blood drips, distortion, and such.

After a long stressful few days this video was just the thing I needed. CS-S-S-S-S…
Make sure you watch this video until the end, there’s a stunning bit of typographic motion that just wowed me.
The music video for Her Morning Elegance by Oren Lavie is so whimsically beautiful, and I really love the song too (mmm….plinky piano synth sounds). It’s definitely worth clicking the “watch in high quality” link on the youtube page.

Violenn Simon created this incredible book of illustrations for the Doors song, People are Strange. The video shows the pages being turned in time to the music. The typography for the lyrics and the ghostly illustrations fit the mood of the song perfectly and I love the way it’s presented in this video.
I loved this video of how an Eames shell chair is built. It’s one of those “Picture Picture” type factory process films that always seem to mesmerize me.
