design a hoodie
March 25, 2009
hoodieremix.com is a fun and extremely smart marketing webpage done by the fashion label champion (actually nightagency did it but …). they basically created a website that allows you to design one or several hoodies you can enter into a hoodie contest. having that said you can only enter if you register and all of sudden they have your personal data and thousands of hoodie designs they don’t need to pay some fashion designer for.
and as the page itself states, there are 157277 hoodie designs so far. not bad guys. it’s a good page though and actually fun to throw a few patterns on the hoodie.
slip – xbox short film by akqa
March 18, 2009
slip is a short film produced by the interactive agency akqa for xbox. it is produced pretty well, the images are great and the VO fits the purpose and visuals. the film portrays a freerun beyond the possible. the footage was filmed by 4 HD cameras, capturing 1000 frames per second.
akqa claims this has been the first time cameras like these were attached to a freerunner, filming the pov. golden square did the post production, adephoi music the sound design.
visual crap
March 13, 2009
allright, how many more times do i need to see a toilet paper in combination with a space to put down a killer idea? no more! same counts for napkins of all kind. we’ve seen it. ok? if this is advertising for a visual arts school then better do something that’s fresh, as the next guard of visual artists should be, and first and foremost: think! as claimed.
also, i bet in most cases there is going to be still crap on that toilet paper no matter if you wipe off your brain or a…
skittles continues with crazyness
March 13, 2009
i love it. can’t say it any shorter or more clear. as insane as the skittles advertising is, it is probably the most absurd, fun ad stuff of recent years. think about it for a second and put yourself into the position of one of the creatives who came up with that stuff. you are basically paid for flying over a cuckoo’s nest. just awesome. enjoy, hope there is more to come.
for some pain never stops
November 7, 2008
visually stunning piece. tbwa in paris is again on the forefront of fantastical art direction. there must be something about the environment over there that creates and inspires the creative guys to emotionally moving and visually progressive work. it’s not the first time, remember the amnesty international ads?
wassup continued. 2008
November 4, 2008
it’s a pretty important day today. and who doesn’t hope the world is going to change. this is a different sort of election commercial and for all of you who loved the old wassup budweiser spots this will be funny as hell to watch.
whopper freakout zone
December 27, 2007
nice piece of third party endorsement advertising. burger king ran an experiment where they pretended in one burger king that the whopper was discontinued. see the peoples reaction. pretty clever.
