Shimi Cohen

Shimi Cohen is a motion graphic designer and animator that I came across on vimeo. His videos use fast pace motion graphics to convey a message and some of them include a voiceover to tell the story of the video, meaning the viewer can listen carefully and follow the graphics on screen.

Below are four screenshots taken from three of his videos. Shimi uses a consistent colour scheme and similar, simple designs that make it visually appealing to watch.

Another video from Shimi “the innovation of loneliness” was shared in one of my workshops. Again, it uses facts and fast pace motion graphics to display the content and a voiceover to talk about it. The message being conveyed is well executed and explained, especially being a sensitive and meaningful subject. This is similar to my concept of mental health problems, and this video has given me some good tips and hints to creating a well designed, visually appealing factual video.
