I’ve not seen the movie but this feature at their site is kinda fun and great use of dynamic Flash with a bit of what looks like Adobe’s FLEX or AJAX thrown in. Basically you can add your face on top of one of the characters in the “wedding crashers” movie trailer. You upload your [...]

This is a billboard that’s placed on the ground and when people walk over it the billboard will move or animate. I particularly like the water effect for the juice ad. Very slick idea and I think we could see a lot more this sort of stuff very soon.

This is pretty spooky. Maybe because I worked in this building everyday for a few months. I knew it was creepy and very old but I didn’t think it was haunted. Now that I think about it, this place is the kinda place that would be haunted. The people who used to work here would [...]

Ok I know it’s in Japanese but I totally get it and I am never peeling another potato ever again. The Irish love their potatoes. Since being here I have never ate so many potatoes. Don’t get me wrong I love potatoes too, I just hate peeling them. I’m amazed that no one here has [...]

I think it’s an advertisement for a bank but I am not sure. Very creative animation using only people.

I have been using FireFox exclusively for well over 2 years now. I also try to install it on nearly every machine I use even if it’s not mine. So, if you use FireFox and not sure how it got there, it was probably me. Your welcome. This is very funny. “WEEEEEEEEEE!!!!”

I Spy…Giving the X-Men a digital face lift.

I found this particularly interesting because I am about to go watch this movie in about 10 minutes. For years, beauty work – removing wrinkles, blemishes and giving a glow to the skin – has been common in music videos. Less drastic beauty work has recently become more common in movies to make actors appear [...]

With the world cup in full swing I thought these would be worth sharing. It’s done in the MTV PUNK’D style but instead of Aston Kutcher it’s Rio Ferdinand and he’s punk’ing the English football team. Enjoy. For more information and a text break down of each punk check this out. Here is more via [...]

I like the new apple ads. They are good because they are true. Here is a preview of a new one that’s not up at apple yet but I am sure it will be very soon. New Apple Ad in a Box

The latest pixar film “Cars” is only just out in theatres and already a new trailer by Pixar is out for us to preview. The names of the cast have not been released yet but I am going to guess the fat rat is David Schiwmer; better known as Ross from Friends and the lead [...]
