Flo just sent me the coolest thing I've ever seen. Anybody who up to now thought I was a geek for being into second life can now bite my shiny metal ass... check this shit out:
This is one of the finest examples of converging technologies I've seen so far this year. Suddenly the possibilities are endless and it starts to make a useful and universally engaging system out of what was just a plaything for geeks, freaks and tech-heads.
Is just a simple sketch really so don't get excited.
I like socks, but why is it near imposable to find a matching pair at 7am on weekday mornings? So i decided to extract revenge on my now ex-girlfriend's sock drawer.
Missing Letter:
Those of you who follow the links I post over at my iVideo, Time and Space blog will know my fascination with stop motion animation. I had the flu a few months ago and the boredom drove me to play with my new camera. An overdose of night nurse, 10 nurofen and a bottle of wine later and later I found I'd taken lots of pictures of socks.
And so, here I am, just over one year into the crazy world of Dare and ddddigital Advertising and I didn't expect to be posting a Vodafone DRTV in the folio of projects worked on at this place. For my part I have to pass on all production credits to the amazingly talented illustration hands of Gavin L from the Creative Dpt, and Luke from the creative hothouse that is Dareschool. My contribution was in the technical/ finishing area only, wrangling renders etc.
I think that the work stands by its self, without any long winded appreciations from my dulcet tones; it has all of the style that we should be expecting from (otherwise often dull) DRTV commercials, and definitely is a champion. It seems that creativity and perseverance (a lot of sweat and mouse-grease from Gav), have outperformed the super-high production budgets and professional broadcast work flows of the big-boy agencies who rule the roost in this field of putting together TV commercials. Hats off to all involved - Eduardo lists the credits on his blog. For my part, only a satisfied smile and the hope that Dare continues to play a part in bringing it's creative edge onto the Telly.
