Glee! The television commercial for Miss Dior Cherie is finally available in a high quality form. Just as gorgeous as the print ads, Sofia Coppola has worked her magic… bicycles, macarons, flowers, cute boys. The song is Moi Je Joue by Brigitte Bardot. Swoon.
Somehow I don’t think the keytar is going to work for us as a gift under the tree these holidays, whether giving or receiving. They’re much bigger than I ever expected!
Thankfully, there’s a more suitable stocking sized alternative - a stylophone! This miniature stylus operated synthesizer is a recreation of the 1967 classic. It’s famed [...]
I love this ad for Nokia maps! Yes, they are a big bad global brand but really they are quite lovable, creating very interesting communications pieces - have you seen the 4th screen manifesto?
This one is for creative kids of all ages… I especially appreciate the gloriously inky marker at 0:27 - it makes me [...]
The AIGA GAIN conference was recently held in New York, focusing on design in business. Malcolm Gladwell was one of the speakers there, discussing the development of creativity and the manifestation of genius:
“Genius and creativity don’t necessarily spring forth unbidden… they require time and support to experiment, to try and even fail.”
Luckily for us who [...]
Elektrobank, directed by Spike Jonze and starring one Sofia Coppola. I have been scouring the internet for the last few days looking for the Miss Dior Cherie clip but alas, nothing yet. Dear Internet Goddesses, please provide!
However, I did stumble upon the iheartsofia youtube channel which made me feel loads better, and amongst the champagne [...]
Dear SubPop Records,
Thank-you for all the joy you have brought into the world. The day you signed The Shins the world smiled… and when the Phantom Limb video was made… Well, it’s a slow burning epic. A school play to rule all school plays. The end and saving grace of the world. Okay, maybe that’s [...]
Just dance! This song is totally indulgent and silly but I love it. It’s the kind of amp-up song that I would have played in my old apartment on a Saturday night. My friends would have arrived and be starting to get drunk on wine while I would still be running around slamming on mascara [...]
There has been a lot of Kanye hating recently but you can’t deny talent. He makes fun, friendly songs and the ‘Good Life’ won a Grammy for best Rap after all. The video was directed by Jonas and François with animation by So Me, the same crew who made Justice’s super D.A.N.C.E. T-shirt video. Illustrated [...]
Today’s video continues with the mini theme of CRAFT! We move from embroidery to a spot of knitting. Steriogram’s Walkie Talkie Man inhabits a knitted world, borne from the mind of completely bonkers French genius Michel Gondry. This video is fun, fast and features one angry security guard. Steriogram hail from New Zealand (I used [...]
Every single Architecture in Helsinki video I’ve seen has been gold, making it hard to choose just one to showcase! However I did manage - the animated embroidery of Like It Or Not really shone and what’s more fitting for today’s crafty times? The video was directed by Josh Louge at Mathematics. I definitely recommend [...]
