This is a genius short film directed by French animation collective H5. The animation on Logorama is superb, and the attention to detail is hilarious— a gay Mr. Clean, lecherous Pringles guys and a deranged, bloodthirsty Ronald McDonald all enter the fray (love the Slurm cameo and Leica rifle scope, too). No wonder Logorama was […]

Available on the Where the Wild Things Are Blu-Ray and DVD — which comes out today  — is a special feature, a completely unreleased 23-minute adaptation of another of Wild Things author Maurice Sendak’s books, Higglety Pigglety Pop! Starring the voices of Meryl Streep and Forrest Whitaker, the short was directed by Maciek Szczerbowski and […]

You’ve undoubtedly seen the work of Al Jarnow, although you just might not know it.

Vancouver’s Langara College seems to understand this, which is why I’m suddenly seriously considering a career in Chinook Business. You never know when that could pay off…

A great, simple video about the evolution and employment of power by British think-tank Demos, The Power Gap was created in conjunction with UK-based agency Airside.
