Lost In Motion


--
A stunning performance by dancer/choreographer Guillaume Cote. At first the dancer looks as if he's CG (computer generated), but I know for a fact that the CG world hasn't reached this realistic looking muscle movements, yet. Which makes me think that the editor of this video has done a terrible job of compositing if he's trying to make it look fake. Very heavy on saturation and contrast, which never looks good and the lighting is poorly executed. The key element in this video is he's dancing and how great of a dancer he is.

My Career Path

Fiat 500 by Gucci on Nowness.com.

I feel this comes in a perfect time as I have recently transitioned from the automotive advertising industry into women's shoes/handbags product line.

This video sums up my career path, (but in reverse).

Take Care


--
Directed by Yoann Lemoine:

I started learning illustration and animation at Emile Cohl School, Lyon, and screen-printing techniques at Swindon College, London. After college in 2004, I started illustrating in several magazines and children’s books, in France and the USA. At the same time, I joined a french production team and started to direct my first 3D-animated TV ads and music videos, before putting my eye to the camera for my first live shoots.

Today, I live between Paris and New York, mainly working as a film director in media such as video, 8 to 35mm film, 2D and 3D animation, Stop Motion, photography, illustration, painting, screen printing, sculpture, collage, knitting, holograms, and more… I’m a very curious person, constantly looking for avenues of expression that combine those different mediums.

Call me a do-it-yourselfer.

Bat Country

DISCLAIMER: What you are about to see is entirely fictional.

This reminds me of those MTV intermissions in the 90's, the endless loop cycles. I was always fascinated by those animations. If I set this video to loop I could watch it forever.

Congratulations to "Good Books" and the agency "String Theory" for putting this amazing animation together. Now the world must see...

South America, Peru


--
Traveling could get expensive really fast but this trip we had a $90 budget per person per day which included hostel, delicious food (plus sampling all the street vendors), daily activities, sight seeing and bus fairs to different cities, (minus the train ticket to Machu Picchu which set us back $175 a person).

We landed in Lima, this is where we did most of the partying and drinking. To keep to the budget we took the bus from city to city, not the best time spent on these buses as they became longer and longer throughout our travels. Shortest distance was to Nacsa which was 10 hour bus ride and the longest being from south of Peru back to Lima for a whooping 15 hour bus ride, (a personal record for me). We sand-boarded in the sandy dunes of Nasca, cycled through the mountains of Cusco, hiked up to Machu Picchu, and enjoyed our last days in Arequipa than back to Lima to fly home.

You've seen the pictures now check out the video.

Premonition of Danger


--
The air is growing cold and there's nothing you can do. Soon there will be no gauze inside the confessional. There is no light in the darkest of your furthest reaches. The ocean floor is hidden from the viewing lens, a depth perception languished in the night. All my life, I've been sowing the wounds, but the seeds sprout a lachrymal cloud. -- The Mars Volta

Camo-Green-Gorillaz


--
In conjunction with the release of the limited edition chuck taylor Gorillaz collection, Andre 3000 and James Murphy have teamed up with Gorillaz to give you a killer visual soundtrack. I'm a big fan of Gorillaz music and creative concepts, unfortunately not a big fan of camouflage. Look out for the camo-chucks in the video.
