videos with animated type

Great - it has yodleing and sheep. What's not to love? Oh, and the type animation's not half bad, either.

The transitions and the music really fit the tone of the type.

Really interesting combination of type and film. My favorite parts are when the type is incorporated into the actual environments instead of being off on the side. This video also has a mood that fits what the speaker is saying.

The music, the typefaces used, and the narration all fit together. And you get a quick introduction to typography!

Now, I've never played Portal, but this is still pretty hilarious. The images are funny and the plain type treatment fits the song. The only part that doesn't go with the rest is the fiery part. The entire song is in type and simple graphics, why would you stick a realistic image in there?
