Movies of 2012 Super Cut

I missed not finding the time to write new articles, so I now decided to take some more of my rare free time to share with you what I love, what I feel, what I think is worth sharing and some other things. In other words, be ready to see more content!

Every year I post a the movie recap of the year, this one comes from Youtuber Nick Kinder. He spent 2 months, 65 Gb off his laptop, went through 200 movies and around 50 hours to edit this piece of art. Since his description will be much better than mine I invite you to read it in the description of his video.

The faces behind your toys

Wow I can't believe I let you down for the past month, work being hectic I had little time to come up with something interesting. Well that was until I stumbled upon German born photographer and his Series 'The real toy story'. http://photomichaelwolf.com

I think my timing is well chosen, since we are right After Saint Nicolas and a few days before Christmas. I remember as a kid I had this crazy idea that all my toys were coming from a same factory that knew exactly what kids would love to have and play with. The more I grew up the more I this idea shattered and I discovered the truth ... Then the more I became an adult the more I understood the economy behind these toys and therefore the supply chain of such toys. 

In 2010 the average monthly salary, including overtime, for a migrant worker was CNY1,690 (£150), insufficient to cover basic needs for workers and their families. In 2009 alone, approximately 1 million workers suffered industrial injuries whilst about 20,000 were victims of occupational disease. (Source: War on Want)

This series of picture give a candid and unaltered look at the faces behind your toys or the toys you are about to buy.

If you still believe in Santa Claus this post is not for you!

Unlock the 007 in you. you have 70 seconds

So Coke Zero challenged unsuspecting train passengers to unlock the 007 in them for their chance to win exclusive tickets for the new James Bond movie SKYFALL. However, the tickets weren't free. People had to go the extra mile and unlock their inner 007 in less than 70 seconds to win.

Move your lee!

Well every once in a while you see something that gives you goosebumps, and you think to yourself:
Damn this is Freaking Awesome.

Well I had such moment yesterday, a friend of mine send me an article about a Belgian Creative Director: John Israël from the Agency The-Satisfaction (Article here it is in french though). During the interview he talks about the new lee campaign: Move your lee.

During the interview there were some sequences of the new video. So I looked for it, found it, watched it and all I can say is goosebumps ensued.

The video is poetic, aesthetic, beautiful, sleek and epic. The music is awesome as well!

Enjoy

NEW Old spice interactive/viral Video

We all know Old Spice from their out of the blue/crazy/funny/viral commercial. For the last years we still have in mind the interventions of Mustafa the man on a horse. Well Terry Crews, the somewhat lesser known but infinitely louder and more muscle-y Old Spice guy, is back with a raucous new project for the men's care brand.

The Muscle Music where Terry's muscles are all hooked up to musical devices. When he flexes each muscle, an instrument plays—flex them all furiously, and you get a symphony of muscle-y sound. The video is just one piece—when it finishes, you can use your keyboard to play, and even record, some special Muscle Music of your own. The campaign is a collaboration between Old Spice, Wieden + Kennedy, director Tom Kuntz of MJZ, editing house Mackenzie Cutler, effects specialists The Mill and Vimeo.
