An extraordinary book!


For me traditional reading is reducing in this fast development science and technology period, especially reading book that is written by an unfamiliar word for me. My first language is Chinese I could not focus on a book over 1 hour written by English without image.  I think I am not along, many people prefer to get information though a joyful and easy way. So, that is a duty of book designer should to think about…
Mysteries of Vernacular are a fun and admirable project from Myriapod Productions comprising short animated films about etymology. Each film sketches the history of a word in the form of a story lasting a couple of minutes.

There are to be 26 in total, one for each letter of the alphabet, So far, assassincluehearse and pants have been completed. The animation is inventive, inviting and understated, drawing viewers through an old book whose pages inform and amuse as they turn. I really enjoy this short animation and I think I will buy or read a book like this one if it attached a video explanation … As a Graphic Designer I like we should break 

some traditional simplex rule, we can do any idea lighten out in our mind. I hope I can not only combine design and play together but also make my audience laugh and learn something.
