"Motion by Design is the first combined book and interactive DVD package to present the works of some of the world's leading motion graphic studios. The accompanying DVD contains samples of almost all of the featured work, plus extra pieces, allowing these works to be seen in their element - in motion. The DVD also features a unique and in-depth interactive timeline that traces the development of motion graphics, placing it in its historical and cultural context." "With a foreword by Kyle Cooper, the book showcases new work by 27 international studios, grouped according to genre: Opening Credits, Broadcast and Commercial, and Web. Each section is introduced by a leading motion graphic designer in that field: Garson Yu, Dan Pappalardo of Troika Design Group and Hillman Curtis. Sequential frames for each piece are accompanied by a discussion of the creative process and production process behind the piece. A comprehensive introduction provides an essential history of motion graphics. Also included are a glossary of key terms and biographies for every studio."--Jacket.
