The Schwarzenegger Trilogy Video Hand-Drawn With Highlighters

Wed August 17, 2011

The Schwarzenegger Trilogy from Brainbow on Vimeo.

Brainbowinc made these 3 hand-drawn animations using 1600 frames cells and highlighters to add colors.

The first video ’5 4 3 2…’ is a series of continuous hollywood explosions edited into a simple beat.

The second ‘Galleria’ is a cut from Terminator 2 which is one of my favorite scenes from any movie.

The third ‘come on… get down’ is a original gangsta rap with lyrics provided by Arnold himself and music created by Harry McGowan

The short films premiered at the Standard Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles as part of Cine-Shorts which is a bi-monthly series that aims to provide a platform for local directors + aspiring filmakers making their mark in the city of los angeles.

Engage: Boldly Proposing Where No Star Trek Fan Has Proposed Before

Tue August 16, 2011


From zachmuhn

It’s not everyday that Captain Jean-Luc Picard of USS Enterprise gets to perform a wedding for his crew members, but his alter ego, Patrick Stewart, was at the Wizard World Chicago Comic Con and got to preside, sort of, over a trekkie fan marriage proposal to his sweetheart. After she accepted, Captain Picard got to say the famous word: “Engage(d).”

Making of MÖBIUS, Interactive Optical Illusion

Mon August 15, 2011

MÖBIUS from ENESS on Vimeo.

MÖBIUS is a collaborative stop motion sculpture consisting of 21 large triangles that can be configured into many cyclical patterns. Depending on how you’re looking at it and how the triangles are arranged, it looks like it’s either eating itself and/or slinking into the ground. MÖBIUS was animated over two weeks Friday, Saturday & Sunday between the 6th – 20th of May 2011. When played back, the stop motion video becomes an optical illusion of people interacting with the sculpture and moving through Melbourne’s landmark location throughout the day.

For The Die-Hard Nikon Fan

Sat August 13, 2011

If you have Nikon cameras, lenses, mugs and even cakes, what else can you have to prove your devotion to all things Nikon? Well, how about a PAA JOE’s Sculpted Nikon F2 Photomic Coffin? Who says you can’t have it all and take it with you?

PAA JOE may be convinced, I’m sure, to use other cameras as models if that is your last wish. (groan)

Peoplemovin – Where In The World Are All The People Moving To?

Fri August 12, 2011

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong
- Eleanor Rigby by the Beatles

At any one time, there are people moving all over the face of this planet. We are not talking here of travel for business or pleasure, but of migration. Where do the people immigrating to the USA or Canada come from? You’d be surprised by the answer of who’s coming in from where and who’s leaving to where.

On the interactive graphic, click a country on the left side to see where people are leaving from that country to what other countries. Click on a country on the right side to see which countries are supplying the immigrants to that country.

For example, in the following graphic, I selected USA on the right side to display where people immigrating to the USA come from.

It’s lots of fun and mildly addictive. Give it a try!
