BOARDS AWARDS Video by Stardust

This animation was also an inspiration for me. The animation is highly sophisticated, magical and fasinating. The way that the camera angels move and guide you through different genres of teh fantasy animation. Again the music very subtle which you can barly hear but gradually gets louder as the animation unfolds. The colours in the movement are gentle to the eye yet have impact.To try and recreate this with the skills on after effects that i know coming into a project like thisa for the first time would be highly complex and complicated and would be far to challenging for a first attempt even the story boarding must be horrifically complicated. However element have inspired me into what i can adapt into my own animation. I watch this animation now and again when I am sick of after effets testing and storyboarding I try and bring myself back together with this animation.

Fabrikx Motion Graphics Demoreel 06

Whilst researching motion graphics I came acroos this contempoary group. they show shgort graphicsof projects that they have created combining impacts with simplisty and complex areas. It was one of teh show reels that i enjoyed wathcing have watched many i became board quick and so this is one that kept my attentionwith the range of style and porojects they had combined together

Aa a break of point from the digital madness and relying on technology i decided to have a break and combine both sides by looking at handgenerated work recorded. The drawing speak for themselves but watching them grow and progress alongside the progressive music helps aid the creation and makes you watxch to the end wanting to how realistic the drawing will get.

E4 Stings

Looking into the quickey way that E4 produces inddents withthe commonly known colour of vibrant purple help draw the eye to areas of the motion graphics. Although the graphics are aimed at the younger generation it seems to have very vintage areas that would appeal to different areas of young generations yet the channle brings in people ranging from early to teens to late 30's with other channels such as more4 for the age group progressing from this which i feel the graphics help identify this

10 Creative Ways to Recycle Ordinary Objects

I found a very useful and interesting report about creative ways to recycle and reuse thrown away objects that is really inspiring. Recycling doesn’t have to be limited to helping the environment: it can also be a challenge and opportunity to ingenious designers who work with materials most people would consider waste to create amazing things. Some of the following designs serve multiple purposes: illustrating the material possibilities of what most would consider trash while also maximizing the aesthetic potential of what would otherwise be considered waste objects. Clothes become rugs, airline trolleys become furniture, cardboard becomes bridges and sewage turns into building blocks!

Sonic Cloth

Marcella Foschi isn’t the only one with ideas on how to reuse audio tapes. Some clever designers have taken it to the next level and begun to weave sonic cloth from the actual tape within the cassettes.

Marcella Foschi

Italian designer Marcella Foschi has developed a quite clever way to recycle cassette tapes: a product material that exists in abundance but is associated with a dying (or dead) technology. Her coin purses are at least cute (if not collectible) and appropriate a material we all know, love and have stopped using.

recycled growing gardens

There are all kinds of approaches to garbage gardening that appropriate trash items and reuse them for decorative or practical purposes in gardens. The example shown above is just one of many including colorful mosaics from broken dishes and assorted other ideas. Not extreme enough? Try guerilla gardening instead!

The Remida Center appropriates scrap materials from all kinds of local businesses in order to gain raw materials ranging from wood and metal to plexiglass and plastic that students can use in art projects. The idea is both to facilitate art but also to raise awareness about the origins of materials, essentially recycling otherwise unused materials and putting them toward the production of art.

recycled buildings

The BituBlock may interesting and almost artistic … until you realize it is made from post-consumer recycled products including ash, glass and, yes, sewage. Still, it doesn’t smell and ultimately it is an incredibly strong and durable building block that rivals other materials such as concrete that would be used in similar situations - and does so using almost entirely reused and recycled materials.

Architect Shigeru Ban is well known for a number of high-profile architectural designs but perhaps less so for his artistic and ecological side projects such as the cardboard bridge pictured above. This bridge is composed over over 250 recycled cardboard tubes with recycled paper and plastic comprising the stairs. Amazingly, this recycled bridge can hold up to 20 people at once!

There are few things being produced as rapidly, regularly and in such volume as newspapers. Many of these are, of course, recycled by traditional means, but what if they could serve another purpose that didn’t require the some amount of reprocessing? Sumer Erek has been working on one such alternative: reusing newspaper as interior decoration and insulation in a house

Ever wonder what happens to those oddly shaped airplane trolleys when the airlines are done using them? Well, so did Bordbar before they began appropriating and adding splashes of design to them and reselling them to the public as useful (if odd) multipurpose mobile furniture. These are highly customizable have have a surprising range of possible functions once they are recycled into use.

Creative Ways to Recycle Ordinary Objects

The Volksware designers have provided an interesting alternative way of recycling clothes that may not even bit fit for the Salvation Army. By stitching them and rolling them they have created a simple carpet system that can be cut to length and fit to a space. Something to think about the next time someone tells you to pick your clothes up off the floor!

Buy Nothing Day Advert

The first creative add that I have seen within my research using a receipt of money with important visual messages with the reciept. works well and keeps the audience interested especially with the aggressive music

Adbusters Buy nothing day

A creative way to show the use of freeness (buy nothing) day the concept works well although i am not sure about the violent music I would perhapes change thsi as i feel that it over powers the concept althougfh adbusters probally tried to portray the message aggressivly which is there personality with the advertising branded world.the recipt idea links well to my theme and is something i will test in my storyboarding and after effects testing
