The Conception of Wine
Aside from being a visual feast, one of the strengths of motion graphics is its ability to break down dense information and present it in an easily, digestible form. Tiago Cabaco created The Conception of Wine for a school project, which required the basic facts of a topic of interest to have a motion piece [...]
The LOVE Thing
Really digging James Lima’s spot for Katie Grand’s LOVE magazine. Lima shot The LOVE Thing with the RED Mysterium-X as well as creating the CG visuals. I’ve also had to go hunt down the banging track he uses, A/B Machines by Sleigh Bells. The LOVE Thing from James Lima on Vimeo.
DN EP 160: Off Season – Jonathan Van Tulleken

A Human Sausage, a Human Torso, and Maybe Myself
Airports are meant to be transitory spaces; they are bleak and filled with transitory merchandise. At least, they should be, unless you’ve made a really stupid decision and bought a ticket with an 8-hour layover at a deserted airport in Nyköping (pronounced, for better or for worse, Nish-ping), Sweden. Stay in an airport for more than a [...]
JUL & MAT
A random tweet from @buzzfilms led me to a promo by JUL & MAT, which led me to another and another and another. All of which I enjoyed and have prompted my theft of the Twitter #musicmonday meme for DN (at least this week, if not from now on). Although varied in execution and style, [...]

Max Hattler: New Films + New Job
Everyone seems to get an extra spring in their step over a bank holiday, especially when it results in a mammoth four day weekend like this one. Well, I’m thinking that our old friend Max Hattler will be having an even better time of it following the news that Partizan have picked him up for [...]
