Peter Saville - Optical Illusion Video

Graphic Designer Peter Saville, designed a short video for a campaign - Transport London to urge drivers to give motorcyclists a second thought.



The short video uses optical illusuons to show how the mind is easily tricked, and as with optical illusuons, some things aren't what they same, and this is the message Saville has portrayed within this campaign.
