Charlie interviews himself on Technology

This has been going around the internet for some time, I ignored it because it was hard to imagine Rose being funny. However, if you have ever watched the program, it becomes apparent (and annoying) that Rose loves to repeat prominent names or catchphrases. In this video, it is Google and Yahoo. But if you hear him talk about politics or the situation in Iraq, he would constantly say the line “America is the lone superpower” over and over again, like it were a mantra.

Anyways, that is a long way to say this video is funny and spot on with its silliness.

P.s. for all of his faults, I still love the Charlie Rose program.

Best Game Ever - Best Improv Everywhere prank ever!

The Improv Everywhere pranks were getting tiresome. But this time, they stepped up to the big leagues (all puns intended). The group showed up at a Little League game in California with a Jumbotron, sports newscaster Jim Gray and a friggin’ blimp.  Awesome cuteness.

Tap Project

For World Water Day (March 22) Unicef launched the Tap Project, a campaign that celebrates the clean and accessible drinking water available as an every day privilege to millions, while helping UNICEF provide safe drinking water for children around the world.

Beginning Sunday, March 16 and culminating on March 22, restaurants [in the United States] will invite their customers to pay $1 for the tap water they normally get for free.

This promo for the 2007 Tap Project has been made at Psyop by Laurent B., Mel Tonkin, Zoe, Lutz, Tanya Weiss and Borja Pena.

Duncan’s TV has this year brand new promos if you want: Monsters and Dollar.

ABC-3D

Delightful and innovative pop-up book by graphic designer Marion Bataille.

Each of the 26 dimensional letters that move and change before your eyes is a treat.

From the lenticular cover that changes with the angle of your hands, all the way to the Z, ABC-3D is as much a work of art as it is a pop-up book.

Behind the scenes of the old school HBO intro

This is a fascinating look into the old school way of creating elaborate title sequences. Now mind you, I love digital cinema. But I can’t resist falling in love with this problem-solving animation technique. A great example is that light thingee used to create the inside of the HBO bronze structure. Brilliant, it is engineering and filmmaking melded into one.
