“Onward” + Nike = Good stuff

Here’s a great animation done for Nike by James Jarvis. Simple, engaging and a great story-telling example.

Yesterday was the annual Oscar awards and the winner of short animation was Logorama, a short 3D movie made entirely out of logos. The concept is pretty interesting, because that is is close to the truth: everything around us is branded. Unfortunately, the story is weak, making the logos more like a gimmick, no matter how cool it looks like.

Ignore the preview video above and just go here to see the full Logorama.

It’s made by the French collective H5, who is known to make awesome animated music videos like Royskopp’s Remind Me and Goldfrapp’s Twist.

Here’s another music video they made, At The End Of The Sky from Darkel.
