Create.

After dissecting a tornado of thoughts, images and stupid insights I finally came up with a few ideas for the next assignment of Graphic Design. Which was designing a promotional postcard for Creative Technology. So I pulled some stuff together, fired up Photoshop and out of my crazy mind came these two:

What do you think?

Urban Mayhem

Yeah, the world is a dark place, and in big crowded cities it gets even darker. In this project for 'We Create Identity' we're going to show how unsafe an urban environment can get with an interactive video. This video you see here is a little preview of metropolitans getting crazy; the end result will come in six weeks from now.

You can also follow the process of making the interactive video on one of my teammate's blog:

Grappa.

Something about this magic potion distilled from mashed grape skin and seeds, triggers me to start playing video games. I guess this emotion is derived from a memory,  when a dear friend and I, after drinking a fine glass of grappa, decided to screw Easter. Consequently, we ditched the chocolate Easter eggs and went to see "300".
Now I really like this movie, not because of the story. Nay, I really enjoyed this movie because of the bullettime-effects; it really kept the stupid entertainment-level high up in the sky. There's a first time for everything, so I left the cinema mindfucked of the beauty of bullettime.. Secretly I wondered how it would look and feel like when these effects were put into game.
So, it's 2010, I'm randomly looking at Youtube-clips with my brother, and check this out:

It's time for me to ditch DJ Hero and get a grappa; I've got some serious slashing to do.

Truthfully I'm not the biggest fan of Dutch hiphop (Except for Kyteman and Pete Philly&Perquisite ofcourse) But men, this song comes straight from the heart. Seriously, just listen and don't pay attention to the creepy video. Nothing fancy or outrageous, just some raw emotion in your face.

Enjoy,

or better said,

Peace!
