An incredible amount of consistently good work from design duo Dixon Baxi can be seen on their site. They have just done a great job rebranding UK television channel Five, have completed equally great work for the likes of SciFi Channel, MTV, VH1 and Last FM.

This is certainly worth a look wether your a fellow design professional or a budding graphic designer.

If your having one of those brain ache days or just need a little helping hand with colour palettes then ColorBlender is a great little online tool. Simply input colour references from your design and hey presto a range of complimentary blends.

The great thing is you can save your blends for future use, output to photoshop & illustrator or even email the details. A really versatile free app that deserves much credit.

On similar lines to Myfonts – What the Font, here are a like minded collective on flickr that will help you try and identify fonts from photographs. Not sure what the success rate is but there’s some nice images as usual.

Continuing the motion graphics theme here is a superb online portfolio from Christopher Hewitt. I used to do a bit of work with Chris when he was primarily a web designer but his change of direction into the motion world has certainly been a wise choice.
Lots of great work, insight with Chris also featuring as a regular speaker on the motion festivals circuit.
