This video, Pulp Fiction in Typography, is a really cool way to show what can be accomplished with type, even though it's not directly related to the subject.

I love that one. It was the first one I ever used in a presentation.

Funny thing was, even though 2 out of 20 had never taken a type class, they had ALL seen it!

At 32 I guess I'm too old to keep up with this whole "cool" game.

This is a school project I did last semester. We could only use black and white type...

DVNO was just on someone's blog. I think it was michael rock or someone of the like, I'm kinda talking out of my ass at the moment. Since my co-worker linked me to it on thursday, I've watched it like 7,000 times. I'm debating on buying it from iTunes because it will remind me of great motion type. It's an excellent correction to the cheese-tastic 80s logos.

Some great motion graphics projects

This could be cool as well, not sure.

Not sure how many people actually get this channel, but AMC (American movie classics) has great ads for it's movies done completely in type, usually using famous movie quotes (in H&FJ's Ziggurat).

Not the best example, as they've gotten better since:

Not sure if this is real or not, but it is also 'for AMC'. This one is more type driven. Might not be something you would show in a classroom though.

I know they aren't exactly videos but I have always liked these:

Good stuff folks. Keep it coming.

I hope that this course is not going to just be watching videos. The best way to teach typography is to have students render type. Only by drawing the characters will they see the subtle differences and begin to understand them.

(Your course will be less fun, but better learning.)

These are simply little video clips to kick off a class for 18-24 year old 1st-2nd year design students. Nothing serious, just a little fun.

I love AMC ads. I love that fat ionic they use, along with rockwell. So cool. Thanks Andrew.

The Big Fat one is Ziggurat from H&FJ. It's quite awesome.

I am showing a new student how to use Typophile.

Thank you Christopher.

Mailbox! Open Mailbox!

By the time I got to the end I was in tears.

I need professional help.

Christoper, I saw that yesterday as well. I think it deserves it's own post. I was in tears as well, especially with the added irony of Comic Sans being the hero.

I think it deserves it’s own post.

I have been doing some research on a type designer in Vienna, named Viktor Solt-Bittner.
He also owns an animation company. This is an animation that introduces one of his font designs.

Its stuff like this that makes me love that I love letters.

Neutra Face: an ode to a typeface (a bearded poker face parody).

Kinetic type animation of the Ken Nordine classic "Green."

Not as cool as DVNO, but I love this one. Lenny Kravitz "Let Love Rule" (Justice Remix). Directed by Keith Schofield.

The Alphabet (1:07)

Cool--too bad of the 30's Edith Piaf soundtrack it sports.

I'm with Jimmy above, DVNO rules more.

Ah, I meant the DVNO video by Justice -- the one with all familiar company logo's.
