Non Blinking World Record Attempt
From Japan comes the case of the woman who has set out to beat a record on time without blinking. But there’s one factor she hasn’t prepared for.
Viral developed for Morinaga and Co by Dentsu Inc, Tokyo.

Crossbow
Introspective and titillating at the same time.
P.s. I am getting tired of the 35mm adapters on DV cameras.
The greatest gift
I love my daily dose of silliness and this one is going to last me the week. Once again, subtext is all over the place, especially if you live in the States. Directed by Daniel Bloomberg.
P.S. Alisha - You wanted to do a film on chocolate. Well, you might be a little late…
Underneath the Madrid Metro ad
Beautiful graphics and music come together to create a sensually pleasing effect.
You Need a Quiet Place
The new interactive catalog from Ikea is really something. Go on and take a peek at some bedrooms and their inhabitants.

Spike Jonze’s opening to Lakai - Fully Flared
What can be better than slomo skate boarding footage? Explosions. Quite beautiful intro to an upcoming dvd (a review).
p.s. can’t decide if this is graphics or a real stunt.
I can never get tired of timelapse
From the guys that brought you this, here is another timelapse and warm classical music mix.
Evol
I was going to save this for valentine’s day but it is too good to hide away. What if you and the your soulmate in one direction and the rest of the world moved in another? Well, it would be very easy for people to find each other but it would be quite a lot of fun. Directed by Chris Vincze.

Piccadilly furs & Camera tests
I have been looking to upgrade my camera. My main camera consists of a VX1000 from the early 90’s. I have been looking at the Red camera but it is outside of my budget by at least 10k. The new Sony XDCAM EX1 fits nicely in my budget (well, not yet but very soon).
Philip Bloom bought one of these cameras very recently. His first shoot produced this stunning video…
Note: It is always about the shooter and never about the camera but I am nevertheless super excited.

Kaiser Chiefs - Angry Mob
Another music video by The W.I.Z that talks about class. The earlier video for Dizzee Rascal was an incredible work where the exciting action was able to speak in broader terms . Here, the social commentary is strained, the action has no broader reference till the very end. Throwing out rude patrons is not a symbol of class conflict. Whether it be a hole-in-a-wall bar or the trendiest French restaurant, nobody has patience for rude patrons. The fight should have happened earlier and lasted longer. The song is non-existent, I frankly can’t remember anything about it. The slomo cutaways of facial expressions has been tiresome for some time now.
With all that being said, the video remains interesting and an original.
Things Fall Apart
Arresting stillness that teases more than shows. The tease, however, is quite good.
A Slip in Time
Perhaps, you’ve seen high speed camera footage of almost everything, by now.
But… what about slapstick comedy? Well, if you’re curious, watch this short by Dayton/Faris.

VW - Nightdrive
Richard Burton’s brooding delivery of a Dylan Thomas classic perfectly accentuates Noam Murro’s darkly beautiful new VW spot for DDB, London.
A popular ad online. It would be hard to play it on television because of its length. Reminds me of the visualizations of Billy Collins poetry.
Ad for Phantom Camera
Stunning cinematography. Most times, that means ultra-smooth, commercial, pretty but boring imagery. In this case, there is also an undercurrent that seems to keep everything alive and suspenseful.
