iLLuSionS
Whilst I’ll be the first to drool over the latest fashion film of cavorting models sometimes it’s nice to just get back to basics. Panagiotis Karamitsos’ iLLuSionS, is a wordless profile piece featuring greek designer Ourania Kay, which reminds us of the hours of work that go on behind the scenes to craft a collection [...]

SOPA/PIPA Blackout Day
Today you may have noticed several sites across the web have launched a self-imposed blackout in protest against the proposed SOPA and PIPA bills before the U.S. Congress. If you’re yet to hear about the wrongs of the bills The Guardian’s SOPA/PIPA Blackout piece is a good jumping off point for more information. We like [...]
4,748 Self-Portraits and Counting
When I initially hit play on Jeff Harris’ 4,748 Self-Portraits and Counting, I have to admit that a hint of cynicism did flicker across my mind. Why did I want to watch yet another pic-a-day project peppered with the odd beautiful image rising from a mountain of averageness? I couldn’t have been more wrong! Harris, [...]
The Horror Portfolio
Hatinhand returns with a compilation of horror films that may have you watching from behind the sofa. Sixty-four horror movies in a five-minute montage; the perfect project to work on until 2 a.m. and then return to an empty, dark, cold apartment. The last few nights have had some really, *really* twisted dreams.
Vowels
Temujin Doran provides music and beautiful cinematography for his short documentary Vowels; “based on an archival sound recording taken from the 1945 Linguaphone series ‘English Pronunciation – A practical handbook for the foreign learner.’” Vowels from Studiocanoe on Vimeo.
2011 Movie Trailer Mashup
I know I just keep on posting these end of year movie montages but I had to share Sleepy Skunk’s 2011 Movie Trailer Mashup. Yes, it looks great, but I also liked how this take on the year is split into two distinct parts (Prima/Seconda), each defining a different aspect of the past year of [...]
The Cinescape & Filmography 2011
Hot on the heels of Hatinhand’s 2011 Portfolio come The Cinescape & Filmography 2011 from Matt Shapiro and Gen I. respectively, both transfixing takes on the past year of cinema and when combined, an informed study into the art of editing. If we get a few more of these it won’t be long until someone [...]
Hero
In an act which should be defined as the embodiment of dedication, artist Miguel Endara’s Hero documents the painstaking creation of his 3.2 million dot stippled portrait of his father over 210 hours. Hero from Miguel Endara on Vimeo.
The 2011 Portfolio
Around this time last year Gen I. strapped us in for Filmography 2010, a 6 minute run through the year’s cinema releases. This time round we have a new guide in Hatinhand (aka Alex Eylar) who traversed 166 films, accompanied by 6 songs, over a month of uploading and editing. The resulting 2011 Portfolio is [...]
