Kinetic Typography: typographic treatment of an audio sample
Tagged: typography
kinetic [adj.] Of, relating to, or produced by motion.
typography [n.] The general character or appearance of printed matter.
I was browsing through the typography tagged bookmarks on Ma.gnolia.com over the weekend and ran into a video that I found extremely engaging to watch. The video was comprised of lyrics moving on screen set to music; the timing of the words appearing was synchronized to the vocals too great effect. See for yourself.

ban comic sans: putting the sans in comic sans
I saw this on reddit today and thought it would amuse a few of you as it did me. I have used Comic Sans on occasion to mimic comic book style in Photoshop and it looks great. The guys at Little Gamers also use it for their comic (9pt regular all-caps, if you were curious). The opening titles for the movie Sky High also take advantage of it, they use it drop shadowed in all-caps, such a fun movie to watch.
