Life doesn’t stand still, and neither does great design. One of our favorite categories at the PRINT Awards is Motion Graphics & Video – because it’s always filled with showstopping design that, you know, moves us. In this category, we’re evaluating a spectrum of design that moves – animated work, title graphics, commercials and advertisements, and documentary work.
Our jurors in this area are among the most exciting movers in the field, building some of the world’s most recognizable brands, helping emerging design leaders strive for social impact, and above all, creating video and animation work that reaches hearts and expands perspective.
