Is Cuil Cool?

There's a new search engine that just launched and it's built by former Google employees. Supposedly it searches more than 3X as many sites as Google. I am undecided... the results seem a little iffy and I can't decide if I love or hate the layout. Be Cuil

Behind The Scenes of Campaignin'

This is a pretty cool video from a pretty cool company that really seems to put a lot of effort into their work. I know it sounds weird but they are an e-card company. I was fairly impressed with this video and then was blown away with how much production goes into their movies. They put up a full production blog that shows what it really takes to make these.

National Television

We all know National Television and I could be wrong here, but I believe this is a fairly new site and update. The site seems to have been done by the lovely Loyal and as always the work of National is what happens when the concept and the design are as good as the motion itself.

The Stanley Kubrick Season

This spot for the Stanley Kubrick Season on More4 is really nice. Now Showing

"This stunning promo was shot in one long take, and is a look behind the scences of Kubrick’s 1980 film The Shining, all from the perspective of the director himself."

The Interactive Art Director

Recently I have moved title's at my job. The company I work with kind of left it up to me to figure out what would best describe my position. I no longer wanted to be Art Director because I wanted to distinguish that the priority on my plate is interactive first before other projects. I was very pleased to find that Interactive Art Director is not only a valid title but also a title used by companies as large as:

• Absolut Vodka
• Wieden + Kennedy
• Pixar

Now meet the school that teaches Interactive Art Direction - HYPER ISLAND
Also here is more about the school itself - The School

The New Walmart

Iam sure many of you have seen this, but thought I'd get a little thread going on the new logo for Walmart. They always get people riled up! Found this over at UnderConsideration/BrandNew where you can check out a really nice history of the logo as well. I am indifferent to the new logo, better than the old one but looks very "now" to me and not very timeless.

Adobe Kuler

This was posted about a while back but must have been about an older version of this app because the comments were negative since you had to log in to use it. It's an insanely cool way to create color palettes using everything from your own color as a base, to an image from online. You can even export the palettes straight to AI or PS! Try Kuler

Iron Man Main Titles

People got mad at me for posting about Iron Man last year... said it was so "corporate" and all about war... blah blah blah. Can't we all at least agree that these closing titles by the incredible Danny Yount are insanely cool? Check it out .

Oh and by the way, the movie was awesome. And so is Starbucks, Apple and Bands that sell out.

Cool Hunting did this video back in July, so you may have already seen it. Lori Nix was just included as one of Cool Hunting's 'Top Five Photographers of 2007'. Really nice work!

Royale - Flaunt 9th Anniversary DVD

Royale seems like they're gunna put out some ridiculous work. This first spot is for the 9th Anniversary DVD from Flaunt Magazine.

"We had the amazing opportunity to provide Flaunt magazine with a 3 minute experimental short that co-branded Flaunt along side their sponsor Diesel..."
