Stephen Fry on Language Pedants

This lovely typographic animation from Matthew Rogers takes an essay by comedian, author and television host Stephen Fry on the nature of language and transforms it into a visually appealing format.

In a mix of Fry’s pleasing tones and kinetic typography (that’s moving textto you and me), it reflects on those who enjoy language and those who have an aversion to grammatical errors and the like.

Consider the number of comments below an online story that point out spelling mistakes or nouns being turned into verbs.

These kinds of contributions are made by irritating pedants, says Fry. I tend to agree.
