Toylife
Really nice video for a great cause.
Usual 'stranger than fiction' style animated infographics (which, if you havent seen, is HERE, by the ever brilliant MK12). But with some really nice glitches and other nice graphical elements.
I especially like the credits right at the end, a really nice and rather understated use of cinema 4D (extruded type with softbody dynamics if i'm not mistaken). Will have to give that a go...

Projection Mapping onto a projector
Projection mapping is used everywhere now, and is getting pretty old pretty fast.
However this is a really interesting idea, using mirrors to project onto itself.
The work itself isnt particularly fantastic, but I can think of dozens of interesting creative ways of using this technique.
Could even go so far to create a visual feedback loop endlessly creating visuals and projecting them back onto themselves?

Musclebeaver.
Musclebeaver is a german design and animation duo based in munich.
They created this beautifully stylized film called 'how your money works'
Just beautifully art directed and animated.
It went on to win a Bitfilm Award this year, and to thank everyone for their votes, made this film here:
Doesn't it just make you want to be German?

Breathtaking.
Click Here to see the visual effects reel from Gaspard Noe's new film 'Enter the Void'. I missed this at the cinemas but can't wait til it hits on DVD, a definite must see.
The effects reel is simply breathtaking, making the dark underbelly of tokyo utterly beautiful in a haunting, neon way.
Plus the Sigur ros soundtrack to the reel (avoiding the usual BBC sigur ros cliche bollocks) just adds to its dark beauty.
Watch, and be amazed.

Designers and Code
Really interesting video with Daniel Shiffman outside OFFF Paris 2010 (which I was lucky enough to have attended - and just realised I still havent blogged about...).
But yeah, interesting video stating the reasons we should all get comfortable with a bit of coding. Give it a look.

Kill your co workers
Another amazing video from a warp artist.
This is from Flying Lotus, and animated by Beeple.
THe video is really simply animated, but really nicely executed too, with great humour.
The 3d characters are available here and user can create their own videos, and submit them at vimeo.com/groups/flyinglotus

An Ode to Chillwave.
Last weekend I visited my friends in manchester and also went to a gig by Chillwave band Neon Indian.
It was a sad affair. Chillwave has been described as the 'sound of summer 2010' and unfortunately, the summer is now over. Neon Indian looked sad, exhausted, and didnt really have the feel of summer about them any more. (not the feel of british summer, but rather the idealised version of summer that you see in 80's teen movies).
I imagine that chillwave bands suffer the same fate as wasps at the end of the summer. Or perhaps not, although i'd would be entertaining to see Alan Palomo go mental and start stinging everyone who eats jam sandwiches.
Anyway, as a homage to the dying genre of Chillwave, and my awesome summer that it seems to have sountracked, here is a video that I made on the train last week whilst coming back to London.
Enjoy the wavey chilledness of it.
The music is by Neon Indian, although feel free to replace it with your favorite track by Washed Out, Toro y Moi, Memory Tapes, etc. Its also better if you enjoy doing chillwavey things like jumping into lakes, and surfing.

The Creators Project: Lumpens.
Lumpens are based in Seoul, South Korea.
They use amazing digital technologies to create great moving image pieces. I especially like their projection mapping projects.
"For us, working is like playing, and by playing, we make money. We want to keep living that way."
