Now we have all seen the Kill Bill poster with blood spurting out the side onto the footpath and a parked car, the advertising of finding nemo in a box of sushi, and even the lego crane.

But, today I came across a very smrt piece of advertsing from Nivea, promoting their range of protective sun creams for kids.
Have a look and see what you think!

Dublin’s Skyline to get an animated make over!

57 Days to go until Dublin’s Liberty Hall is turned into a digital animation master piece.

During the Dublin Theatre Festival from September 24 to October 11, the West and South sides of Liberty hall building will change constantly and will have in the region of 330 windows form a massive screen to display artworks created by the public.

Each of the 330 windows will be fitted with sophisticated LED lighting, this will enable the building to change colour at night and each window will act as a “pixel” on a screen to display the different designs.

Animations can be submitted on www.daft.ie/playhouse from August 24.

Viraling it!

This week I bring you a great little Viral.

The Sons of Maxwell came up with this ingenious way to complain about the handling of one of their $3,500 Taylor  guitars at Chicago O’Hare airport. After one of the band witnesses a baggage handler throwing their guitar around, the guitar was broken. When they complained to United, they just passed the buck on and on and on for 9 months, until Dave Caroll gave up and wrote 3 songs about the experience, as well as shooting a video.
