stages of transformation

quite like this schematic of a werewolf transformation done by illustrator ray frenden. it reminds me how creatives sometimes feel working on a horrible assignment. and, in some cases it seems like full moon never goes away.

it seems like this decade will be visually recognized for a mix of illustrative fantastic hyper realism computer illustration. there is a whole generation of 20-somethings that illustrates the hell out of their computers. a lot of them fall into the same sort of style bucket. heiko klug’s work sticks out a bit and is quite interesting. check out his portfolio jesar-one.com


paper beats internet - really?
Posted on | May 5, 2009 | No Comments
don’t think so but nevertheless interesting. paper beats internet is an online but analog social networking platform that uses hand drawings as communication tools. the project is a collaboration between the ontario college of art and design, and a group of invited collaborators. check it out at paperbeatsinternet.com.

chalk animation for firekites autumn story

this is nicely done but what i like a bit better in blu’s first chalk, stop-motion drawings (click here) is that blu integrated, in a very interesting and surprising way, more of the real environment. it was a play between fiction and reality, less here so, still cool.
just awesome

john pasche’s poster design for the rolling stones european and american tour. what is it that this old stuff often looks so cool? i don’t know, maybe because there is some timeless coolness out there.

diversity and quality are two things coming to mind when i look at what matt w moore does professionally. he is a designer, illustrator and generally a creative mind i guess. and, it’s pretty hard to stand out these days where you can find pretty much everything over and over again, where the same thing with just a different name on the tag is only a mouse click away.
doesn’t happen that often that you find someone who does wallpapers, snowboards, art, packaging and other stuff with such a high quality level and unique style.
check out his site and work. mwm graphics

let’s go back to the 60s for a second, across the ocean, far far away. interesting pop-art, manga, kitsch japan style illustration by artist eico hanamura. interesting personality and story, read the interview from pinmag.

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?

joshua davis is a design troublemaker. “a lot of printers ask me how I created my work,” he says mischievously. “because technically, it’s not actually possible.”davis creates electronically generated graphic compositions of almost unimaginable complexity and individuality. equally at home with print and electronic media, he builds his own Flash-based programs to combine and recombine colors borrowed from nature with forms that include organic shapes, text elements, and other symbols.

an image from Davis’s “tropism” exhibition, inspired by a 1908 book of floral dissections, at the Espeis Gallery in Brooklyn, NY

seems like we need some weird craziness these days (probably always has been that way) to get attention but right now every good commercial has to be “hand made” to be cool. dare you to do cgi, that’s OUT! visuals and the latin music don’t work well together and leaves you with this awkward kind of “huu?”.
