The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore

Thomas Brodahl — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 12:13:22 -0800

Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, “Morris Lessmore” is a story of people who devote their lives to books and books who return the favor. Morris Lessmore is a poignant, humorous allegory about the curative powers of story.

Wow. Amazing on every level. A true masterpiece.

Hypefortype — TYPOGRAPHIC REVOLT (EDITION #1)

helloMuller — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 03:17:14 -0800

In an effort to bring their Exclusive Faces range to a larger audience, HypeForType approached graphic designer Ryan Atkinson to produce our first magazine release. The brief was to produce a 16 page A2 mailer with a twist. Instead of following the traditional convention of a read through booklet, Ryan designed a quick read through A2 magazine which also doubles up as a set of 4 Exclusive Faces posters. Each page folds out to create a double sided poster perfect for your studio or home wall space.

The magazine itself is printed litho on 90gsm wood free paper, giving everything a premium newspaper feel which absorbs the inks to create a beautiful desaturated look and feel.

PROM NIGHT was official selection at SXSW 2011 and Rooftop Film Festival 2011. It received a Special Jury Award for the dancing at Videofest24. http://celiarowlsonhall.tumblr.com/

What a beautiful and simple short film. I highly recommend fully immersing yourself in it with the lights off and full-screened.

GUI templates designed by RepixDesign

Jessey White-Cinis — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 16:05:21 -0800

Start design or develop your own iPad apps, Android applications or websites with these unique user interface templates

I like the idea of great designers simply selling their designs. I feel like people are more and more getting to a place where they enjoy consistency with their applications anyway, so even if there are a number of apps out there using the same icons and textures, I think it can only help the end-user.

I make films. I take photographs. I write and direct, shoot and edit. I am a storyteller with an overactive imagination who sees life through a cinematographer's lens. I am a post-production fiend, never satisfied until every frame of footage has been precision edited and color graded. I am an animator with the instincts of a graphic designer. I am a man with the legs of a cheetah and the flippers of a walrus. Just seeing if you are paying attention.

New portfolio full of quality work.
