Brazilian graphic artist Adhemas Batista has been very busy cranking out the bright, colorful and slick vector illustration work that made him known throughout the design world. He has collected his most recent efforts to display in an equally slick new website. He has also launched a blog if you want to keep up with him there.

Voltage – Bam Studio

Comments Off on Voltage – Bam StudioMotion Graphics

Bam Studio sent this experimental animation video to me today and I was impressed on several levels. It’s an interesting bit of animation in terms of what is happening, but it is equally inspiring for the imaginative renderings of the figures. There is a vintage 70’s throwback feel in the execution that is just really fun to look at. I’ve got nothing but love for the Brasileiros.

A whole lot of credits:

Brasileiro designer Dimitre Lima just emailed to inform me that he just updated his website with some new work. I was immediately drawn to the processing-driven Mtv animation-ident in his portfolio. I managed to track down an actual video that you can see above but please do drop by his site for more of his unusual work. Eu gosto muito.
