Kid Cudi posted this on his blog. I love this animation and I can see why he can relate to it. The beginning of the clip makes me think of our own life and how society tries to make us believe we need to buy things to be happy. I believe the message that this is trying to convey is that sometimes you just need to appreciate life more and change the way you look at things to really be happy because something that has been in front of you all along can make you happy if you just learn to appreciate them. The third idea i get from this is the idea of an artist or just a person who makes sacrifices for others. Sometimes when you give everything you have to others you have nothing left for yourself. I know many artists feel this way because they convey all their deepest thoughts, feelings, and emotions in their work. You can agree or disagree with me on this leave a comment with your thoughts.

The Raven
THE RAVEN - 720 HD from THE RAVEN FILM on Vimeo
The Raven is a very well made short film. The idea of a futuristic seemingly evil regime trying to stop a rogue hero has been big in film and video games lately, people must know a revolution is on the way ;). I really enjoyed this short film. The effects are great and the story pulls you in from the beginning.
Le Tour du Monde en 80 Secondes.
This is a really interesting idea and the fact that it's based off of the Jules Vernes book "Around the World in 80 days" is really cool. The photography is very beautiful and fits perfectly to the music and the transitions between the countries are seamless.

This is a very interesting idea and pretty sad when you think about it because something like this is entirely possible. A promotion by the WWF.I'm Beamin by Lupe Fiasco

In Captivity
"In Captivity" - Short Film from Michael Koerbel on Vimeo.
In captivity by Michael Koerbel is a very imaginative short film. The cinematography is beautiful especially the final scene it almost looks fake that location must have been difficult to find it seems like something out of a classic story book.Head On
"Head On" A special project commissioned by Steven Spielberg.

Memoirs of a Scanner
Memoirs of a Scanner (Martinibomb Version) from Damon Stea on Vimeo.
This is a really clever idea, pay close attention to notice all the subtleties. The entire video was shot using a Canon scanner.Friday, March 12, 2010

Alternate Pursuit of Happiness Video
This alternate video for Pursuit of Happiness is great. The visuals are awesome and the effects and camera tricks are really interesting. There is very abstract and symbolic imagery throughout the video so pay close to attention to it. It's hard to say which video is better this one or the original. I would say this one because I am more artistically inclined and I feel that this video has a lot more substance than the original.

Coldest Winter
KANYE WEST "Coldest Winter" Directed by: NABIL "ITUNES link below" from nabil elderkin on Vimeo.
This was one of my favorite songs from 808's and Heartbreak. I love how Kanye changes the songs for the videos it shows that he is a real artist he doesn't just do the same thing over and over again. He experiments with his music. The director Nabil is one of my new favorite directors he is relatively new at directing but has made most of the videos for 808's and Heartbreak and a few other music videos. He has great style and use of imagery to portray the feeling the song gives. His videos bring a new depth and meaning to the songs.
Nothing better than a child's imagination.

Love this video, makes me think of being a kid again.

The Greatest Story Never Told
The Greatest Story Never Told from Nicolas Heller on Vimeo.
This is a great idea for a short video like this. The angles and camera motion used really show the character's confusion and raw emotion. Also it showcases the fact that a director or artist in general can get influences for future projects even from their most intimate moments in life.

Mr. Morag's Helical Dreams
Mr Morag's Helical Dreams from VTV rider on Vimeo.
Mr. Morag's Helical Dreams is a very interesting take on cloning and it's ethical issues. It really makes you think about the life of a clone and who or what they really are. My only criticism of the short film is the voice they used for Morag's clone when he was yelling "MORAG" i found it annoying. There are also some shots and angles I would not have used if i was the director. Other than that I thought the film was excellent.
Vampire Weekend: Hang Up the Gun
Vampire Weekend from homairaazimi on Vimeo.
.This is a great video the tennis match idea fits the song in a strange way. I love some of the angles they use on the band's faces. My favorite part of the video besides the cameos is the part where the band dissapears and reappears on the court. The vid has so a lot of dope cameos. I won't spoil them for you check out the vid. YEEAAH!

Third Shift
Pretty interesting idea, another take on the recent vampire trend, I'm not a huge fan of the recent vampire trend but I like to look at each thing separately this was done very well and shows another perspective of a vampire's story.
