I’d say it’s funny, cause it’s damn true.

Mad Men pockets

Christina Perry designed a series of posters rep­res­ent­ing Mad Men’s pocket squares. If you’ve ever seen the tv series, you will know that the atten­tion to detail is so good that it made the series win lots of awards.

cre­at­ive blood

I was look­ing around on behance.net for some ideas on how to cre­ate a good Cur­riculum Vitae. I stepped on this one and I’m extremely impressed. If I were him I’d ser­i­ously send in some fake blood bags to agen­cies I’d like to work for. They couldn’t tell him no.

cable draw­ings

Don’t know what to do with all those cables around you? Get inspired by Maisie Maud Broad­head!

50 people

50 People, One Ques­tion. I found out about this pro­ject thanks to a friend, who linked me the first video you’re going to see. The way the video it’s filmed and the way they put all the pieces together is really well done, per­son­ally it man­ages to give me the emo­tions that those people are feel­ing while they ask them one simple ques­tion, which usu­ally doesn’t have a simple answer. Enjoy.

geeky pro­posal

Pro­pos­als are quite inter­est­ing, some­times. There was even a red­dit topic about it. And on the web you can see some really weird stuff. But this, this is awe­some.

face­book facelift

Bar­ton Smith did some­thing every designer thinks about. We think. He did it. Facebook’s inter­face is an issue since the new ver­sion came out, our con­trol over the news is poor and some­times it gets really messy and annoy­ing (I know for a fact that my boy­friend blocked some people and some applic­a­tions from the home page, but who didn’t?).

The idea is inter­est­ing, but the con­trast between the vari­ous con­tents might be poor and the icon’s lan­guage might not be as uni­ver­sal as he thought. But still, to be hon­est, I’d really give it a try, it’s still bet­ter than what we have.

I’ll leave you with a few screen­shots and a short video, check the rest on behance and flickr. You can also join his Face­book group.

trend­set­ter

Iden­tity and graphic applic­a­tion of TRENDSETTER: a small dance event / venue in Lon­don. A work by Paul Holling­worth.

“The concept behind the iden­tity was derived from the name and nature of the event itself. As with any trend the logo itself was designed to alter in appear­ance through­out it’s vari­ous applic­a­tions. Ever-changing, ever-shifting…

The concept of illu­min­at­ing the char­ac­ters was inten­ded to mimic the crowd’s attrac­tion to the event as noc­turnal anim­als are attrac­ted to light.”

gigan­to­fol– lia

While I was doing the Inter­ac­tion pro­ject last semester, two of my class­mates (Alessia and Bruno) were doing the Anim­a­tion one. The video they real­ized is really good.

CS5

I’m still won­der­ing whether or not this is real, even if I went on the offi­cial web­site and read a few com­ments about it, but it looks like it is. Of course Adobe is work­ing on their CS5, but I didn’t think they’d let us be a part of it by show­ing some sneak peeks.

The pen­cil func­tion is inter­est­ing, I’m pretty sure there are already a few pro­grams that let you do that, but for all the Com­puter Paint­ers that are out there – and you know there are a few who cre­ate amaz­ing stuff – and use PS, this is one step for­ward.
Warp­ing, with the con­trol points, those are things we’ve already seen in After Effects, but put­ting them inside PS is a really good thing.
Now we only have to wait until, prob­ably, April 2010, and I’m won­der­ing whether or not the school should buy CS4.

no key­frames

This is a video cre­ated with Cinema4D, but without key­frames, it’s all based on auto­mated setups and the authors them­selves are impressed by these effects. A beauty.

typo­phile

BYU design stu­dents cre­ated this amaz­ing stop motion where everything is real. Yes, everything. It’s the Typo­phile Film Fest­ival open­ing title.

3D envir­on­ment with 2D Beatles, Rock Band’s outro is… well, beau­ti­ful.

type pack­aging

Not only there’s a peri­odic table of typefaces, but there’s typefaces pack­aging too! Check Ger­gana Plum­mer’s awe­some work.

Mel­bourne

Redesign­ing a brand is not an easy task (and here we’ve exper­i­enced it with the RSI rebrand), but Landor Asso­ci­ates did a beau­ti­ful job with Melbourne’s new iden­tity.

Here’s the pre­vi­ous iden­tity:Qui vedete l’identità precedente:
