Instead of just one, we're featuring 2 great videos in this week's "video of the week". We've selected 2 really inspiring videos from the TED Conference. "TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds.
The best thing about working in design studios is team work! Designing pieces can be real fun... but not as fun as the work process featured in this video. The thing is almost magical, and trully amazing how they made this video.
Video clips are an awesome way to bands express themselves, and also a good chance to make something really cool. Jape has made this awesome clip for their song "Floating", showing us slow motion fruits and vegetables literally flying at a poor guy's face.
When it comes to cool animated movies, one of the most beautiful and interesting techniques is stop motion. Giving life to real dolls through out a whole movie is a though task, and Henry Selick's Coraline is all about it.
During this past year, we've seen plenty of watercolor inspirations, which were pretty awesome! Sometimes we get to see trends repeat from time to time. The video of this week is an awesome Donald Duck cartoon, the one where he visits Brazil for the first time.
Playing off the theme of a recent video contest, "Transformation: Live and React", Julien Lassort and Matthieu Burlot (France) explored the human face, the most exposed and personal part of the human body. Their dynamic portrayal of 1000 and one faces is a mosaic of portraits and emotions that plays off of the power of faces seen close up.
The fact that the last video we've posted here was a car commercial as the one we're posting today has nothing to do with coincidence. It's an awesome thing how these commercials are getting better, and better.
We absolutely love cars. We also love motion graphics. Make a combo of those two, and you've got an instant favorite. That's what the people at Glossy made: an awesome advertising motion graphic video for Lexus. The result is totally awesome.
It's been sometime since we've featured stop motion videos... We really love this technique, which got beautiful pieces of work. "This Is Where We Live" is an animation produced by the Apt Studio for the 4th Estate book.
I've always been a video-game fan. Since the very first Atari 2600 back in the 80's, playing games like Pitfall, Hero, and Enduro. After that I had quite a few consoles, from one generation to the next; Sega Master, Genesis, Playstation 1, PS2, and now my Xbox 360.
