Here's a little list* that I complied of things that I think are not nearly as good as the past two (even three) decades. This is of course my opinion, but it's my blog so piss off. But seriously the "craft" of so many things has just failed us as a society, as we readily are willing to digest any crap because we're to lazy to make anything better
I happen to like Daniel Craig as James Bond, I relise that I'm in the minority about this but I like the humanity he's brought to the character. Look, know one beats 'The Connery' we all know that but I dig Craig's groove. Let's move past this and go to what we've come here for graphic design bliss. All designers can all agree that the two things they'd love to do more than anything would be design a progressive paper sample book and the opening sequence to a movie of a client that would give them the creative freedom to do so. The first time I saw the opening to this film I was only upset it was in the theater so I could not rewind it and watch it again. N-Joy.

The last thing I thought you'd hear me say is "oh you should go to the UPS site it some great little chunks of intel' there." But indeed that is what I'm about to tell you. UPS has partnered with credible companies such as Mashable, TechDirt, VentureBeat & Small Business Trends to put together a great little video series called "Seizing Opportunites Videos" – Andy Azula might have been better to ask on the name but I digress. Check it out!
Bruno Levy took thousands of photographs in Patan, Nepal over the course of a week using flashlights and long exposures. After getting the nod from Modeselektor and BPtich Control, he created a stop-motion narrative synched to Deboutonner. Reffering to it as "Live Video Painting" its effect is a mesmorizing as fire. Enjoy.
