Neville Brody research



English graphic and type designer with a devoted following for his anti-traditional views. Studied at the London College of Printing. Art Director first of The Face, a London-based “style” magazine, from soon after its birth, then of the men’s magazine Arena. By the early 1990s he was able, with a straight face, to recommend abandoning typography’s requirement of legibility — gloating as a chill shot down the spines of his type-pro audiences
Between 1983 and 1990 he provided art direction for several other magazines, including City Limits, a London weekly guide, Arena, a style magazine, Per Lui and Lei (Italy), and Actual (France).
In 1987 he founded his own London-based design practice, The Studio, which worked on several corporate identities and fashion projects for clients including Nike, the Dutch Postal Service, and the German cable channel Premiere.
He has designed several popular typefaces including Arcadia, Industria, Insignia, FF Blur, FF Pop, FF Gothic, and FF Harlem. He is also a partner of Font Shop International in Berlin and Font Works in London, and founding editor of the digital magazine Fuse.

Animation research
Reference: http://lifestyle.iloveindia.com/lounge/history-of-animation-2221.html
Animation is basically the rapid display of a sequence of images, of 2-D or 3-D artwork or model positions. The display is so rapid that it creates an illusion of movement in the viewers. The phenomenon of persistence of vision is the main basis behind the development of animation. In case you want to further explore the origin and history of animation,

First person who created animation was J. Stuart Blackton was the first person to make an animated film, which he called "Humorous phases of funny faces". For the purpose, he used to draw comical faces on a blackboard, one after the other, and film them. In 1910, Emile Cohl came out with the first paper cut-out animation. The development of celluloid, around 1913, made animation much easier to manage. While talking about the history of animation, three names that are definitely worth mentioning are those of Winsor McCay of United States & Emile Cohl and Georges Melies of France.
Other words for animation Hoopla, exciting, flurry, haste, power, motion, vivacity trip, turmoil,
