Agency Salon Alpin has brought to life Tatiana de Rosnay’s story using animation, VFX and sets made out of paper. This Christmas campaign, created for Montblanc is a heart-warming seasonal story. Text via Howww
The South Alpine production studio wanted to create a campaign that sticks to the Montblanc motto, “made by hand”. The concept was to use only handcrafted sets and the only limitations stylistically was that the setting needed to tell a story that clearly reflected a beautiful and charming Christmas tale.
Milan-based photographer Mattia Crepaldi shares black and white portraits of tattooed and not only models on Behance profile. He teamed up with some of the most beautiful models of Italy and Europe, such as Ilaria Pozzi. They all have jaw-dropping tattoos, from neo traditional to geometric, and from tattoo masters such as Marco Galdo. Mattia Crepaldi’s portraits are diptychs, showing two different aspects or complementary sides of his model. The result is raw, dark, but also moving and breath-taking…

Shot in 60 countries over the course of three years, HUMAN’s ambitiously produced and deeply humanistic documentary film debuted simultaneously on September 12th 2015 at the United Nations and at the Venice Film Festival.In a recent statement, Yann Arthus-Bertrand said: “I dreamed of a film in which the power of words would resonate with the beauty of the world. Putting the ills of humanity at the heart of my work - poverty, war, immigration, homophobia - I made certain choices. Committed, political choices. But the men talked to me about everything: their difficulty in growing as well as their love and happiness. This richness of the human word lies at the heart of HUMAN. The movie relates the voices of all those, men and women, who entrusted me with their stories. And it becomes their messenger.”

Working with a dedicated team of translators, journalists and cameramen, Arthus-Bertrand spent three years collecting real-life stories from 2,020 women and men in 60 countries and 63 languages. These profoundly personal and emotional accounts are interspersed with stunning aerial footage that offers critical insight into life on earth. More than a film, HUMAN’s narratively high reaching project consists in the experience of an immersive and inspirational odyssey, a movement to encourage reflection on the human condition, ignite a conversation around the meaning of our existence, and empower people to make social change.

Russian proverb says "Word is not a sparrow. Once it flies out, you can't catch it", it can hit, can humiliate and even kill. Shockingly tragic acts of youth violence are on the rise in our neighbouring China. An even lesser known finding is that in China, childhood verbal abuse has a strong link to adolescent delinquency (personally it happens everywhere in the world).
The Center for Psychological Research, Shenyang and Ogilvy & Mather, Beijing have joined hands to launch a creative campaign "Words Can Be Weapons" that raises Chinese public awareness of the serious and detrimental effects of verbal abuse.
"At first, these highly stylized fashion images from Erik Madigan Heck look like vector art. However, these shots of Junya Watanabe’s Fall 2015 collection are actually all photography, but edited to be flat and one dimensional to complement the graphic nature of the collection." says Design Milk

Contemporary electronic music producer Histibe is celebrating 2 years since release of his album "Take the Form (Rare Edition)" premiering new music video for track "FOT3D" that includes animation by experimental Dutch visual artist Siegfried Bekkers and logo design by respectable American graphic designer Joe Perez.
Forms Of The 3rd Dimension (stylized as "FOT3D") is a 3D animation video with "stream of consciousness" ideas, which takes a part of your mind into another dimension. The raw greenish style of textures fits perfectly to the "stream of consciousness” concept of the video. It’s not a real world. It’s a deep inner-world that reflects and generates images of the "other side” with various associations, experience and ideas that are incomplete and in the process of its creation. Its greenish color reflects the world of plants. Ideas are like plants: once an idea germinates in your mind, you can’t stop it. It has a will of its own. An idea only needs you to come to life, and once it has been born, it grows with its own logic. It doesn’t need you to exist anymore. You can’t stop ideas. Like music, ideas are free spirits, floating freely around us.

""The force which binds my concepts as a perceptual realist stems from my observations of contemporary human civilization and its relevance to the natural world. All subjects are bound together with metaphoric juxtaposition to render an enigmatic association giving the narrative of each image a subjective conclusion." says Canadian artist Christopher Walker about the body of his work
I'm not a big fan of movies especially sci-fi but the work behind the scenes always fascinated me. Apart of the rumours that there is a crowdfunding campaign to return Matt Damon from Mars, the movie itself is captivating and first of all with its smart use of interface. After discovering GMUNK's work over "Tron" interfaces at OFFF festival few years ago, the way we see UI in movies raised the bar (sorry not to mention the Shell in Matrix).Here is the new, absolutely stunning and definitely painstaking work done by Territory Studio for "The Martian" movie. Working closely with NASA, Territory developed a series of deft and elegant concepts that combine factual integrity and filmic narrative, yet are forward looking and pushing NASA’s current UI conventions as much as possible.
In all Territory delivered around 400 screens for on-set playback, most of them featuring interactive elements. With 85 screens on the NASA Mission Control set alone, a number of which were 6mx18m wall screens, there are many moments in which the graphics become a dynamic bridge between Earth and Mars, narrative and action, audience and characters.
