Sexy CPR

Comments Off on Sexy CPRMotion Graphics

C’mon, you really should know CPR, especially when you consider the fact that at some point in your life the stars may align and some gorgeous human being in their underwear or swimsuit may need mouth-to-mouth.

You gotta admit, this video was a pretty clever idea and an even more clever ploy for self promotion.

Avi Buffalo – Whats In It For

Comments Off on Avi Buffalo – Whats In It ForMusic

“‘What’s In It For?’ is off Avi Buffalo’s debut self-titled full-length (4/27/10) as well as the 7′ ‘What’s In It For’ single that we released back in December 2009. The version of “Jessica” on the album is altogether different from the version that is the b-side of that same single.”

This video is the latest work from Andrew Huang. You can download a free MP3 of the song here as well.

Damn, now I am definitely going to have to buy one. I am wearing one of my old ones right now as I type this.

Amsterdam Osdorp

Comments Off on Amsterdam OsdorpMotion Graphics

“The city district Amsterdam Osdorp recently merged with Slotervaart and Geuzenveld-Slotermeer and was given the name Amsterdam Nieuw-West. This change also meant the end of 20 years of restructuring urbanized areas. To celebrate everything achieved, a book was published. ‘The Metamorphosis of Osdorp’ gives an overview of the architectural highlights. We were asked to create an intriguing video, featuring the buildings we find most characteristic.”

Dry Fish

Comments Off on Dry FishAnimation

“Sometimes you find yourself in a place that you just can’t explain and quite often it can be a little bit worrying. This animated short tells of one such occasion as our hero tries to express his feelings in the only way he can…via the medium of song.”

Eyegasm

Comments Off on EyegasmMotion Graphics

“This is a direct video output from the iPad’s HD screen which generates the animation in realtime at 1024×768. It’s based on my previous animations and ‘Zio’ – my iPhone app. It’s created by complex algorithms and random generation, so you never get the exact same animation everytime you run it.”

The video was produced by codemaster Glenn Marshall with music by Brian Eno.

Molho is the work of Brazilian director Marcelo Altino Garcia. He has created across numerous disciplines and takes a unique individualist approach to each project. I have posted his work before but he has recently updated with some new and noteworthy projects. He has a large body of work already on display and he is definitely someone to keep an eye on in the future.
