Clients

Done with text to voice.
Though this is about filmmakers its pretty universal of clients of creative professionals.

Turf Dancing

These guys are great to watch, could do it for hours.


This one, the dancing is less ... tight? But I like the way they shot it.

Football Ad

There is something in the news about the ad being a curse on the main stars. Bah!
Its fun.

My favorite video of all time...

It was directed by Herb Ritts, acclaimed fashion photographer. Simply breathtaking!

Couture Films

I didn't realise that the fashion houses were doing short film type ads.
Prada just came out with its film at the end of jan, chanel and dior were last year.
The jury is still out for me on them, not sure...
The cinematography is beautiful on all three, but there isn't much else. Direction...meh, story... very meh, acting... well Marion and Audrey don't have much to work with. The men, especially prada boys are too modelish, would have been better with actors, actors with screen presence. Chanels is short enough to feel like an interesting ad rather than a short film and therefore seems more successful. The other two are too literal, like our first versions of the moodbox! lol...

Architcture

an amazing cgi appreciation of space and architecture as art
do watch it full screen

Video killed the radio star

I took a left turn at the National Gallery after viewing the wonderful Szilazi photography exhibit (I bloggued about 10/11/2009) and came upon a surprising exhibition by Lethbridge-based Artist David Hoffos.

From the pamphlet:
"Scenes from the House Dream is the culmination of 5 years of studio production [...]. Over the past 17 years, Hoffos' work has investigated the psychology behind the spectacle of visual media, old and new."


This exhibition blew me away. Difficult to explain, it truly can only be experienced to understand how he created a symbiotic interaction between model making, video, reflection and optics. It also presents "life size" art pieces.

Cool video, fun song to wake up to

The XX - Islands

Being on vacation today, I decided to look on itunes to add a few songs to my running playlist and check out new podcasts before hitting the books. To my great surprise, this song is offered for free on itunes this week.

The XX are from South London, UK.

Click HERE for their website.

The video is quite fun!!! Very architectural in spirit... I can only assume they used the Thames as a backdrop for most of the video.

PS i miss London :(

Urban Vs Rural
