Here is a list of my favorite motion graphics designers. Starting with the guys who did Colo-Cola's Happiness Factory.
Psyops never ceases to amaze me whenever they do a spot commercial. As motion graphics designers, they make the message simple combined with a very detailed computer graphics, creates a very stunning commercial. The Coca-cola spot was much talked about in the motion graphics community that they produced a "behind the scenes" which was funny thinking that these were actually 3D characters.
Second on my list of motion graphics designers is Jakob Trollback of Trollback & Co. His idea in this video is to take out the artist in displaying their personality in the video and let the music take over the graphics. Known most of the time for the deep concepts in his video, Jakob is now guesting in TED to share the world his ideas.
Jakob is a self-taught artist who started out as a club DJ that's why his love for music is always showing in his works. Here is another from MK12.
MK12 is known for compositing and mixing film and motion graphics. This video is an introduction sequence for the movie Stranger Than Fiction. Simple as it is, the idea was to show the character's boring life as an IRS agent. The sequence has successfully shown the idea artistically and subtley. It was so effective, the style has been replicated in some local commercial, mostly used the wrong way though.
