Forty Story: Portfolio Video
The Forty Story is a phenomenal portfolio video from Pentagram. Rather than use the standard "This is our work, this is what we do" format, they've constructed a narrative based around a boy born on the day Pentagram opened, and how his life has paralleled forty years of Pentagram design. It's really interesting and completely engaging.
