Killer titles, man-headed monkeys, & more

Some good bits from the world of motion graphics:

• Carlo Giovani has created a beautiful little stop-motion animation using his 3D paper models. [Via]
• Ever since seeing Kyle Cooper (creator of the SE7EN titles, among other things) speak at Cooper Union several years ago, I've had a new appreciation for intro title sequences in movies.  "Forget the film, watch the titles" is right up my alley.[Via]
• Along similar lines, check out 10 Kick-A Opening Credit Sequences. [Via]
• File under "More corporate weirdness-for-weirdness'-sake": GE has evidently commissioned Little Samurai, a fun bit of beautiful animation that must be (?) theoretically related to lightbulbs, locomotives, nuclear power, or some other GE endeavor.
• If Jill Greenberg's simian science tripped your trigger, you might enjoy the creepy Basement Jaxx Where's Your Head At video.
