New identity spots

Here's the sneak preview of the new channel identity for QOOB in 2009, created by Studio Ade. Their work is super fresh, add them as a friend if you're a member of Qoob!

F5 Fest!!

I am jumping out of my seat right now in excitement...less than two weeks away is F5 Fest (which I'll be attending!), above is a quick trailer, check out the site for info on speakers, etc... This is THE event of the year to get inspired with short film/motion/music video work.

The Newer Wave

My favorite project creatively is to make photo collages, so when I saw the work of Oliver Wasow I was instantly given a dose of inspiration. I really like the fact that most of his work looks like it should be in an old museum in the 80's!

Struggle Against Reality and Unreality

Fumi Mini Nakamura originally hails from a small town called Shimizu, Shizuoka Japan, but now resides in NYC and creates amazing illustration pieces. I especially loved her "Buy Art Not Shoes" Exhibition Custom Vans, killer work!

Green

Zena Holloway is a SCUBA instructor and has a passion for shooting amazing underwater photography and film. The photo above was for a campaign for Greenpeace.

Tropical Toxic

I always greet a new blog post from Tomer Hanuka and Asaf Hanuka with great excitement, especially the one's that show going from concept, sketch, illustration, to final product. Their latest post got my attention this morning about creating a cover in a series of novels by Mehmet Murat Somer, staring a Turkish Audrey Hepburn deadringer transvestite detective.

Side note: They were also involved in the production of Waltz with Bashir, which I haven't seen yet, but can't wait to check it out. The trailer looks amazing.
