sorry for the delay in posts. i have been sick all week and am finally getting better! yay! more of these all week!

I can honestly say I have never been a big fan of video work, but Danny Yount put on an amazingly professional, clean presentation that really conveyed his love for the work he does. He has an impressive show reel, and worked on some of the biggest film releases over the last year or so, like Iron Man and Rock ‘n’ Rolla.

What I liked about Yount’s presentation was the way he kept it fun. Showing random little snippets from the internet, or his analogy of filming a squirrel, and how he will never do it again.

Out of Yount’s work, I am most impressed by his motion typography, from the way the type in the Six Feet Under behaves like ash when the crow flies past it, to the amazing graphic style used in the Rock ‘n’ Rolla opening sequence.

Be sure to go to his personal site to check out the projects he has worked on.
