Together with co-directors Cory Strassburger and Ming Hsiung, we produced a motion magazine cover and feature spread for Viv Mag – an all digital magazine, which would allow us to create content that will be able to live on the iPad and other tablet devices where digital magazines can live.
Our collaboration with Cory and Ming has been a phonemonal experience and you’ll see a lot more great work coming from this team. Check out this featurette, which goes behind the scenes and shows how we put it all together.
Special thanks to Campion for taking a risk with me. Without the bravery of a good client, we wouldn’t be able to bring you work of this caliber.
Extra special thanks to B2Pro Lighting, Red Camera & Jarred Land.
Extra extra special thanks to Chuck Carey and the good people at Troika Design Group without whom we would still be waiting for renders.
This has been out for awhile but just in case you havn’t seen it, Jon Rawlinson captures the 2nd largest aquarium in the world and displays it beautifully as living art.
This is Keith’s ninth video. Combining the techniques of tilt-shift and timelapse, Keith’s goal “is to present Sydney as the Model City, and help people take a second look at places that are very familiar to them.” Taking a second look is a great way to describe these works of living art. Each video has it’s own song that molds into the videos style and mood, creating a whole other world. With each new release, I see new elements being added that bring a whole new perspective to everyday life.
We’re big fans of Obscura Digital here. Kudos to them for consistently pushing to create unique content with a big ol’ cool factor. Great job of using the projection plane (the building) to create living art.
LED lights have always amazed me and they seem to be popping up as beautiful art pieces. I would love to have this Wind Activated LED display somewhere in my city at night. This was made by Jason Krugman.
“Conceptually, this project developed out of an idea to create a modular system that does not rely on a central decision making hub, such as a computer…Wind is one of the few natural phenomena that can penetrate the dense urban environment. However, we can’t see it because it needs a media to propagate through. The city, constructed of glass, steel and concrete, is intentionally rigid, not allowing nature to affect it. By purposefully adding a physical media for the wind to affect, we can make it a prominently visible feature of the urban environment, bringing natural beauty into densest urban thicket.”
If you haven’t seen these yet, prepare to be blown away. These have been coined “Wee Planets”. There technical term is stereographic projections. They are made from actual pictures and a few select programs. These have been floating around blogs for awhile now and I keep running into a few new people making them such as heiwa4126 on flickr who is now making planets in Japan. He’s also making inverse planets that really mess with your head. Want to make these? Head over to AlexandreDuret-Lutz’s flickr page. Under the account name of gadl, he has made step by step instructions, history, and explanations behind the science of making these beautiful planets. He originally made his first planets with a point and shoot camera.
Watching Danny MacAskill perform on his bike is truly inspiring. Clearly this is someone who lives by the idea that being good is not enough. The little narrative at the beginning of the clip is a window into that philosophy and serves as a wonderful vignette on the merits of persistence.
