Prologue designed the motion graphics for MTV Video Music Awards 2009

October 3, 2009 @ 2:01 am

I remember watching the MTV Video Music Awards this year and taking note of the beautiful transitional video pieces shown on screen. I had no idea who made them at the time, but I made a note on Twitter about how lovely they all seemed. It turns out that an LA-based graphics design company named Prologue are responsible for the look and they’ve been working with MTV on the Video Music Awards motion graphics for the past 3 years.

If you have no idea what I’m talking about, head on over to Motionographer to watch all of Prologue’s VMA videos back to back. Is it weird that MTV asked an LA company to do NYC-related video promos?

Photographs by Keith Davis Young

I just discovered the photographs of Keith Davis Young on Triangle Triangle and I am beginning to think I’ve found my new favorite photographer. Keith has the ability to pick out the awkwardness in an otherwise “normal” scene which is something I’ve been trying to perfect in my own work ever since I picked up a camera.

I hand-picked a couple of my favorites below, but you should check out Keith Davis Young’s Flickr photostream for more visual goodness.

Footage from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

A clip showing many new scenes from the upcoming film, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, has surfaced online and it looks quite promising. The whole scene at the beginning of the clip with Bumblebee crying and acting like a dog seems stupid, but if you can get past that section, the rest of the video is spectacular. It looks like Transformers 2 is going to have more robots, more fight scenes, and more explosions than the first movie! Yay!
