The Colorado Eagles hosted the Tampa Bay Lighting versus the Phoenix Coyotes last month and Jeff Lewis was responsible for creating the in-game graphics. Thanks for the contribution. If you’ve created some sports motion graphics, send it our way.

I’m proud to announce we’ve got a store. Well sort of, it’s an Amazon Affiliate store. Which basically allows me to group together the best amazon has to offer for sports motion graphics. I get a small percentage (from amazon) for each sale of a recommended item, which helps with the hosting cost of the site. But the real beauty is a central location of the best sports related mograph books, software etc. So I need your help. Have you read a good book about sports graphics, After Effects, Cinema 4D or Editing? Are there some plugins you just can’t live without? Please comment with your suggestions (or send us a ‘contribute’ message) and we’ll add the item to the store. Once again, I’m not paid by any of these affiliates to post their products on GraphicsMafia. It’s just a collection of useful books and software that I consider to be the best for Sports Graphics.

I saw this commercial this weekend and thought it was fantastic.

Thanks Michael Blank for sharing, looks like a funny show.

Really great from Justin Bates and the Mill.

Lately, I’ve been working on perfecting my alpha in/out interstitial animations, and I came across a Brazilian motion graphics artist named Victor Seabra. His work is really great and he has a impeccable sense of timing and fluidity when it comes to these SporTV interstitials.

Hit the jump for his demo reel.
