Une Fille Comme Les Autres from Jalouse blog on Vimeo.
Fantastic viral ad for French fashion mag, Jalouse. Bam, hipster from the book store.

Saul Bass: A Life in Film & Design from Laurence King Publishing on Vimeo.
Short film about the new Saul Bass book from Laurence King Press. You don’t get to see much of the book, but what you do see looks amazing, as do the spreads from it at the bottom of the info page.

Two amazing Japanese TV ads from the ’90s starring the one and only James Brown.
A prime example of how some people can be and can act so uncool that they become a whole new definition of cool. Far from being his ‘sell out’ moment, the ever individual Brown embraces the act of selling just-add-water-instant-noodles so fully, and with such complete disregard for what the viewing public might think of a legend of his stature and credibility quite literately selling his soul, that he delivers a soul-selling-noodle-ad like only James Brown could, and that in itself is amazingly cool. Misoba!

FILM 1 from martin de thurah on Vimeo.
Just found Martin De Thurah’s first film for BLK DNM clothing brand, Film 1. Another great short, beautifully written, shot and directed. It’s also worth checking out Martin’s other work on Vimeo and on the Bacon site.
Surveillance
FILM 2 / from martin de thurah on Vimeo.
Another great short film from Epoch films, directed by Martin De Thurah, this time commissioned by BLK DNM clothing brand for their Autumn 2011 collection. This time, The Conversation meets The Lives Of Others meets Three Days Of The Condor meets Rear Window, and pretty much includes everything I look for in a film, short or otherwise.

Agent Provocateur Soiree 2011 from Agent Provocateur on Vimeo.
Loved this short film/ad for Agent Provocateur, ‘Fleurs du Mal’, by Epoch Films, directed by Justin Anderson. Think Scream meets David Lynch meets Stepford Wives meets an invasion of Sexbots all dressed in Agent Provocatueur’s raciest scanties. NSFW obviously.
MovieTitleStillsCollection
It is what it is and it is OMG amazing. The work of designer Christian Annyas, Movie Title Stills Collection is a MASSIVE collection of title stills from 1920-now. And it is amazing. There’s also a section dedicated to the work of Saul Bass, which is worth a visit on its own.

Almost enough to make me want to buy a magazine again.
