James Whitaker

As much as I love city life, I do often fantasize about living in a remote location in a incredible building. James Whitaker’s starburst of shipping containers is to be built in Joshua Tree National Park stirs up such thoughts. A truly space age looking pad complete with views in every direction. You can see […]

Showreel

pixelshifter does animation too! Finally got around to putting an animation showreel together. A selection of various recent projects put together to the joyful bouncy sounds of Barry Gray (theme from UFO). Bring some funky motion to your next project / announcement / invite / project or whatever.

Zero Latency

Born in ’70 makes me 11 years old during ’81, one of the many golden years of video gaming. Donkey Kong, Galaga, Frogger and Defender were all released that year. Needless to say my interest in video games has always been healthy. I have also had a strong interest in VR and all it’s been […]

WoodSwimmer

To use words of his own, “The result is beautiful imagery both abstract and very real.” So true. Jaw dropping piece from clearly gifted animator Brett Foxwell. Not unlike a medical scan of the body, but far more interesting and beautifully put together with sound and edit. Not a lot of technique is revealed, but […]

Fernando Abellanas

Apparently there is a shortage of urban space in Valencia, Spain. Fernando Abellanas has a solution, a pop-up studio built into the underside of a traffic bridge at an undisclosed location. While most likely not legal and therefore not permanent, it’s a very creative idea which shows true commitment to his original idea. You can […]

Words

Words is a beautiful little typography based video project from Enle Li & Liz Xiong. Complete with great sound, the video captures the everyday with just words and colours. I was moved with it’s simplicity. Well done.

Kouhei Nakama

Makin’ Moves is an experimental motion design piece by Japanese based Kouhei Nakama. WOW. A lot going on here. His motion pieces really do carry the Japanese craftsman aesthetic, a super keen eye for detail. Beautiful work.

Ken Hermann

Not just happy snaps! I’m sure there is some great timing and photography knowledge going into these fantastic shots from Copenhagen based photographer Ken Hermann. So much power, tension and movement captured in a single frame.

A movie poster a day

How have I only just heard about this ambitious design project the day after it finished? Sydney based designer Pete Majarich has redesigned a movie poster a day for the past year. I watch a lot of movies, I love movies. His minimal take on well known movies often says a great deal more than […]

Aydın Büyüktas

I have no idea how these images were produced, sometimes it’s better not to know – I prefer the mystery. Inception (the movie) type images from Aydın Büyüktaş really make me feel a little dizzy. Found at Designboom.
