Virgin America Safety Video

Every time I fly somewhere think of this great pre-flight safety video by Virgin America. Pretty much every safety video I’ve seen before is horribly drab so it’s nice to see an airline go for something creative and funny. The animation was done by Wildbrain in San Francisco.

It’s been awhile since I posted here so I thought I’d share some videos I’ve come across on Vimeo that I really enjoy. My favorite out of the bunch is a short abstract animation titled Sonar; created in flash with zero action scripting. Hit the jump for the rest!

I’ve always been fascinated in medical animation. The human body is infinitely complex and its hard to imagine how it all works sometimes. To me there seems no better way to explain things than with CG. Take a look at this animation I found on Wired explaining how blood vessels feed tumors. Amazing stuff!

Motionographer recently featured the 2008 Reel of Dutch Studio Onesize. I wrote a short post on Onesize about a month ago and the music video they did for Anything You Synthesize. Their work is incredible!

Dutch Studio Onesize has created a stunning music video for The American Dollars “Anything You Synthesize.” The video is a time-lapse that takes you across a landscape as the seasons change. A simple idea beautifully executed. Link via Motionographer.
