Sounds nerdy. Probably is. Fun, though! Take five minutes and play the kerning game. Developed by interaction designer Mark MacKay for Method of Action, via Noisy Decent Graphics. Some are pretty tough. |

“Tourists fortunate enough to be permitted to visit the Flong settlements of San Serriffe during the summer solstice will be rewarded by the colourful spectacle of the Gallee sect stamping and shrieking in unison in the Dance of the Pied Slugs.” Quoted on The Guardian, a few years before my first birthday.

A gallery of the end titles from Warner Bros. movies (1924-1967), collated by designer Christian Annyas. Mouse-over each image (there, not here) to reveal the movie. “Unlike other studios Warner Bros. managed to maintain consistency in their designs. Their logo, which hasn’t changed much since the early 1930s, is present in every design they’ve done.” On the same site is a similar collection for Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM). Interesting to see the progression in style when scrolling through the years. “Almost all designs from 1925 to 1936 are the same: a calligraphic script type. Later, a more formal script was used (1939-1942) while various other designs reused from 1944 to 1947.” If you like those, here’s a small collection of movie title sequences I enjoyed. Nice work, Christian. Via Veer. |
