Kinetic typography refers to the art and technique of expression with animated text. Similar to the study of traditional typography of designing static typographic forms, kinetic typography focuses on understanding the effect time has on the expression of text. Kinetic typography has demonstrated the ability to add significant emotive content and appeal to expressive text, allowing some of the qualities normally found in film and the spoken word to be added to static text. Kinetic type has been widely and successfully used in film as well as in television and computer-based advertising.

Such a great collection of typography and motion design. I had been looking for some of these as movies for a while since I’ve only seen still images of them in books. And they even play on my iPhone, mobile inspiration as well!

Great article. There’s a lot of good info here, though I did want to let you know something - I am running Fedora with the current beta of Firefox, and the layout of your blog is kind of flaky for me. I can understand the articles, but the navigation doesn’t work so well.
