life in type… 2 stories.

09 March 2010

Obviously, this video has been seen my almost everyone in the world—and rightfully so. It executes such a fresh, fun, and unique way to telling a story. I’ve been wanting to tip my hat to it’s excellence since Super Bowl Sunday, and since I was on the subject of storytelling, I decided now was the time to pay homage to one of the best I’ve seen recently.

Also, It’s fun for me to compare their execution of a similar design brief that we received when working on the Typophile Film Festival opening credits a few years back: show a life using only typography. Our approach was dramatically different, but I think people connected with it because of good storytelling, once again. Leave it to Google, though, to tell the story SO much more simple than anyone else. Anyways, probably not too new to most readers, but I thought I’d post this here because I actually don’t think it’s ever made it onto this site.
