Microsoft’s latest view of the future

If you liked “Microsoft Sustainability” from a few years back, you’ll probably like “Productivity Future Vision.” (No one ever accused them of sexy titles.) Credits requested.

Comments February 20, 2012 Incredible series of idents designed by Frans Schupp in 1982 for Dutch public broadcaster VARA. Schupp’s intern Robin Noorda (now an independent animator) recently restored the series – the master tape had been lost and the only remaining copy was badly degraded. Thank you to Liselotte Doeswijk for the tip!
To Do List is a sleek personal project from Yaniv Fridman and Daniel Luna. Sound design by WhiteNoiseLab.

New work from Jens Blank: Don’t Swim After Lunch and Greenpeace “Ocean Action.”
Saam is back with “Machine” for Belgian electronic pioneers Soulwax, creating a truly unique interpretation of the ethos behind the audio-visual-obsessional-onslaught that is the Radio Soulwax App. This is a definite NSFW.
Definitely very sexy, and extraordinarily well executed. It’s admirable to see a director that’s pushing the personal work and promos harder and harder. Whether the full “journey” of the melted vinyl is taking the limits of taste a bit too far is really down to personal discretion, but when artists jump on projects like this, and work without boundaries, it’s great to see someone bold enough to create films at this level that test the limits.

TAG skewers Yurcor (and The Mill): “The latest VFX scam: get the artists to pay the taxes.”
This playful promo for Evelyn Evelyn’s “Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn” directed by Hoku Uchiyama is a great way to kick off (or cap off, for those in more advanced timezones) your Friday.
Thanks to Raleigh Stewart for the tip.
The CG Whiz competition is taking entries until Nov. 12. More details on their site.
Nelson Boles is back! His latest project, Little Boat, will put a smile on your face. I guarantee.
