Posted on by jon in church, design stuff | 1 Comment

Here are the two “Year In Review” videos I did for Vertical Church. We used these during our message this morning, which was a celebration of all the things God has done in and through our church in 2011. Check ‘em out!

Our series mashup video (all the series we did in 2011):

Video: The 10 Commandments

Posted on by jon in design stuff, internet findings | Leave a comment

As I’ve just finished the entire Lynda.com training course on After Effects CS5.5, I’m neck deep in the world of motion graphics. While scouring the web for inspiration, I found this fantastic little work of “kinetic typography” by Vit Ryznar. It should also be noted that this was Vit’s first attempt at this type of animation, and he composed the music himself. Check it out.

#11: Thou shalt not be envious of how cool this video is.

Cross Typography Wallpaper

Check out this design I did, just for fun. It’s a downloadable wallpaper (1440×900) of a cross made entirely from the words of Revelation 21:4-5 (ESV).

Feel free to download by clicking the graphic above (for full rez version), set it as your wallpaper and share with your buddies. If the link doesn’t work, right-click and choose “Download linked file as…” or “Save Target as…”

And, be sure to let me know what you think.

If you’d like a different resolution, drop me a line in the comments.

Check out Mike P’s new blog design

I was fortunate enough to give my pastor, Mike P., a complete overhaul of his blog. This involved migrating his blog from TypePad to WordPress (which is no small feat, as you know if you’ve ever tried that). Mike didn’t want a whole bunch of bells and whistles, so I hooked him up with a simple, clean design, a twitter feed, and a few other small goodies.

Check Mike out at http://www.mikepittman.org. Tell him Jon Lloyd sent ya.
