I just discovered Zip design, a graphic design/motion design agency from UK, that made really nice things over the past few years in the music industry. With clients like the Rolling Stones, Chemical brothers, Depeche mode, Tom Jones, Groove Armada, Fat Boy Slim, they made an amazing portfolio.
I really like what they did in visual identity and logos…well the rest is pretty good too!
There are some examples below

The animation is full of lovely colours and energy. Graphics are really awesome.
It was realized by students from “Les Gobelins” in Paris and the short film was presented in Annency’s festival.

It’s been a little while since i last posted a music video on this blog.
Zeus (the band) just released this clip made by Alan Poon and Adam Makarenko.
It was shot on multiple formats, including a Canon 5D MkII.
I really like the landscapes on the video, the artwork is nicely done, the movement also and the more i look at it, the more i see details, the more i think they have done an awesome work because they have stop motion parts with live parts at the same time and it’s really not that easy to do. I guess it’s one of the best videos i’ve seen in a little while…
The song is pretty cool also, enjoy
