"Music Inspired Art"

German beer brand Becks is set to release a new series of labels for their bottles. A previous project created by Becks saw things such as swans, sculptures, fine art and photography brandishing their bottles. In this new campaign, Becks are collaborating with cutting edge musicians such as Ladyhawke and Hard-Fi to produce the new artwork that takes inspiration from their music and album art work that have given them a signature sound as well as creative style.



Above is one of the initial sketches by Ladyhawke and her artist collaborator Sarah Larnach to be released in late summer. Keep your eyes peeled!

Little creative creatures!

A gorgeous student project straight out of the University of Paris VIII.


"In a black & white Paris, little creatures with paintbrush decide to brighten up the city..."





It really makes me want September to hurry up and come around so I can begin similar projects for my final year.

MTV Ident

Check out this amazing new MTV ident from Universal Everything. I think I love it so much because it reminds me of Disney and Pixar's 'Monsters Inc.' It's incredibly fun and playful and the material quality of the animation really makes the characters come to life.

Anyways, have a gander! No doubt you'll see it on MTV soooooon!

Oasis // RUBERDUCKZILLA!

Hello hello and hello! It's been a while since my last blog update, but I promise to update more frequently from now on! Starting with Oasis's new advertising campaign, 'Rubberduckzilla'





The advert itself is fantastic but it's the accompanying website that I'm in love with the most. I'm a huge Nintendo fan so the retro games are most appealing!





Go take a look at the official website HERE and stayed tuned to the blog for more updates over the summer months!

Honda // "Let it Shine" advertisement

Just came across this whilst flicking through my bookmarked websites. It's a new advertisement for Honda which sees a massive group of Honda cars arranged in a grid, each using their headlights for pixels to create patterns and images that work with their choice of song "This Little Light of Mine" by Berend Dubbe and Gwen Thomas.



The cars, I do believe, were connected to a computer that controlled it all. Regardless, it's such a interesting way of outputting retro pixelated images, particularly the scale of it all!

The new Nestle 'Aero' advert

Well, it's been a few weeks since my last blog post so I apologise for that. I've been extremely busy with Ben filming/editing/posting our D&AD student award entry!


Anyhow, I came across this the other day. It's the new Aero advert..






Don't get me wrong, I really like the way it has been shot and the balloons represent the Aero 'bubbles' almost perfectly. However, I can't help but see past this video shot a few years ago by (I believe) Jackass star Dave England.






Obviously an idea has to come from somewhere and I'm all for taking inspiration from here and there to create something new and exciting, but completely taking an idea from someone and making it your own I'm not that into.



Heigh ho! It's nice to see Bob Burnquist still tearing it up on the vert ramp!

NEW Visa 'Flow' advert

This is the new advert from Visa advert staring Bill Shannon who is a "self-taught conceptual dancer who uses his crutches to perform his incredible choreography around the world."

Check it out below. Again, it's definatly worth watching in HD because it makes everything look that much better.
