Motion Graphic Design by Matthew DiVito

Matthew DiVito is a motion graphics designer and aspiring game developer currently in Boston, MA who makes some pretty unworldly animated GIFs.  He started making them to practice his animation skills to get into game design, where apparently its not unusual for one of his GIF posts to get 20,000 notes on Tumblr.  He captures the raw looping animated essence of alluring and quaint visuals in a few seconds that seem to go deeper the longer you look at them--really amazing work.

Zero2 is a strangely intriguing  game he made.

Massachusetts & Connecticut Police Patches

Thought these would make for a different but interesting post.  Usually when we see cops we see their face inside of a Crown Victoria, or we see them in the media on tv, the news, and not so flattering photos of them standing up to protesters.  That said, some of these patches aren't half bad.  The shield shape combined with bold type and solid government emblem work evoke a strong feeling of  uniform power somehow, with my favorites being the ones with the diagonal "police" slashes.
