Pol Ubeda photography

in , ,

"I’m Not There is an ongoing series of portraits by photographer Pol Úbeda Hervàs who lives and works in Barcelona. He says the series came from changes in his life that left him unsure of who he is, but decided to leave the shoes as a small reminder that there was at least some fragment of his personality left behind, more than just a shadow." via Colossal

How can we accept that we are changing? How can we accept we hardly recognize ourselves in certain situations? I am changing at this very moment of my life. I do not react in the same ways I used to. I am surprised. Is that me? These pictures are the way I see myself now. My shadow is there but I erase myself because I don´t know who I am any longer. The shoes remain only to make sure there is something more than… a shadow.

Graphic Design Inspiration Set 2

Iris van Herpen

in , , ,

To promote Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen’s new collection “Voltage” Geoffrey Lilemon and Joost Korngold directed a short trailer. The idea was to represent the collection through a ghost or apparition made of strings and harps haunting the halls of a grand palace, environments made of the same fragile reflective glass material. The film was finished with production support by Random Studio. Geoffrey Lillemon met Iris van Herpen during Paris Fashion week where a discussion sparked about directing a video for her by merging hi-end technology with art and fashion. This led to bringing in Joost Korngold, who is well known for abstract 3d and particle artwork that would suit well stylistically to join in the production.

From there Breek stepped in to give the shapes life by adding intricate sound design to articulate them as instruments. The final piece was a celebration of various different disciplines and ideas brought into one beautiful experience.

Origami and Mapping by Joanie Lemercier

in , , ,

We were happy that had a small talk with talented visual artist Joanie Lemercier known as a part of AntiVJ team. Joanie shows his latest projection mapping on wall mounted paper origami. My name is Joanie Lemercier, I'm a visual artist and my work is based around light projected onto 3 dimensional canvases. Over the past few year I've been working a lot with architecture, and projection mapping onto facades with the visual label AntiVJ (www.antivj.com), but lately I've been exploring much smaller structures, experimenting with pencil, paper, tape and projected light.

This piece is a result of a short residency I did in a gallery space near Birmingham (UK) a few weeks ago. All I used was A4 paper, folded into 7 different sizes pyramids, and taped to the wall. I really like using a very basic geometric shape, and repeat it several times to create more organic structures. I then use a video projector to map the light onto the structure and to animate the composition. I am now working on similar pieces on a much smaller scale made of porcelain.

Listen. Watch. Play. by Studio Output

"Following the success of our previous viral for the PlayStation Store, we were asked to create a short promo film for Sony Entertainment Network. Unlike the previous film, this piece of content had to work much more like a traditional advert, getting across all the services, features and benefits, albeit in an entertaining way." says Studio Output about their recent work "Listen. Watch. Play"

The film feels like a monster pop-up entertainment event, held in a large warehouse space somewhere in London with a vast labyrinth of different entertainment rooms showcasing music, movies and games. The rooms have everything from huge gaming simulators in an aircraft hangar, to a real-life version of LittleBigPlanet, plus EQ and Bravia installations, a content room to navigate through all the titles, an epic cinema room, murals, live art and graffiti.
