People send me links to post on the blog all the time. Most of them are just not very impressive. This particular piece isn't necessarily CG driven, but I enjoyed watching it from a purely visual standpoint. It has a nice mix of cinematic choices, deign and editing.

Dr. Martens 50 - The Cinematic Orchestra cover Lilac Wine
Really beautiful work...
Dr. Martens is celebrating their 50th anniversary, and Blind was invited to join the party. Dr. Martens asked 10 artists to record their version of a cult classic track that represents the spirit of the people who’ve worn DM’s over the past 50 years. One of the songs selected was Cinematic Orchestra’s rendition of the classic, “Lilac Wine,” made popular in the early 90s by Jeff Buckley. Blind was asked to direct the video, which would not include talent, but was given no other creative parameters.
Inspired by Spencerian Calligraphy, Vanessa directed a piece of moving visual poetry comprised of delicate lines. The lines extend and intertwine to form a variety of unique landscapes,populated by various incarnations of the lost lover of the song, including a bird, a fish, a butterfly and a horse.

Apps for Animators
Auditorium is the closest to my favorite game when I was a kid. Okay, anyone who knows me well knows I don't play video games and I am going to severely date myself...but, I loved the game Tempest at the arcade. This game is pretty like tempest AND you guide the flow of particles to make music. Lot's of fun and kind of hard!
I am not entirely sure I know how to play this game, but it keeps my friend's kids entertained for hours and is really cute.
Every animator out there breathing has heard of Simon's Cat, but have you see the nerw application for the iphone? You mak music with meows!!!What are your favorite apps?
Box Animation

I love this little short. I never went to animation school. I started out as a graphic design major before computers were even on the scene and you drew all of your type by hand. Then, I moved to a fine art school and got into drawing as a major. Finally, I evolved my interests into an "electronic arts" major whens my little art school got some machines.
So, I have been exploring more design oriented and motion graphics stuff lately and really liking how CG, VFX and design are influencing each other.

ZEITGUISED
Zeitguised made a piece in six acts for the opening exhibition at the Zirkel Gallery. It entails six imaginations of disoriented systems that take a catastrophic turn, including the evolution of educational plant-body-machine models and liquid building materials.

MultiColor Search Lab
This thing is so awesome. Imagine you are working on design or style frames for a spot. You can search flickr by color and add colors to the search or subtract as you go. The Internet astounds me sometimes and makes me wonder how we functioned without it.
The Creation Of A New Yorker Cover
I have always been a big fan of Bob Staake, and this little movie of his creative process behind the latest New York magazine Cover just shows how economical he is with design.
Second Life Documentary
This just blows my mind.
People are living their lives inside virtual worlds and making money there too! I have been debating making a Jonesie Cake store there, but I just don't like the computer enough to invest the time. I will have to find someone who does...to run it I suppose. Any takers? :)
Looks like CG peeps could make a killing on Second Life.
