The Late Movies: Kinetic Typography

Kinetic typography, or "moving text," videos have become increasingly popular and have flourished on YouTube, where design students everywhere post their pet projects and school assignments. While almost anyone can whip up a text-based video, it takes some skill to create a truly interesting and well-done kinetic typography video. These are a few of our current favorites...
