Self Promotion & BC HYDRO
I’m going to compound on my embarrassing lack of posting by indulging in some self promotion…shame. That being said, here and/or here are 3 Olympic spots that I directed for DDB Vancouver for BC Hydro.

I’ll have the waldorf salad ~ Amon Tobin feat. Bonobo: quite an impressive school project from Zoltán Lányi.
Joanna Delle Donna is a very talented creative director and copywriter. You’d be a smart person to take a look at what she’s been up to.
And to conclude this day of nepotistic posts, I give you Duke Aber. Duke’s an AD/designer at Adult Swim. He’s also one of my best friends for the past 16 years. His portfolio is absolutely unique and insane. You’ve probably purchased some of his stuff without realizing it, or seen it on a giant bus or billboards, when Tim and Eric roll through your town. Go spazz out to it now!
Sometimes we forget that the companies we all love, have people in the mix making that great work happen. One such person is my boy, Matt Hanson. Matt is a freelance animator/compositor, working often as one of the bad asses at many of these places (Psyop, Superfad, Buck, Transistor to name a few) who’s been making you drool for many years.
Full disclosure, my next three posts are pure examples of nepotism.
As a typical design geek in NYC, one of the great things about this city is that you find yourself surrounded by some incredibly talented friends. It’s just one of the many perks of living here. One such person is Yker Moreno (eeekurr). He’s originally from Venezuela, and I think that flavor is evident in his work. Yker’s one of the awesome designers at Buck, and someone whose stuff you should get to know.

More great work from Buck, this time directing four original hand-crafted short films for Sundace … “Sundance came to us to direct four short films to play in front of the festival’s discerning audiences at each event screening. This year’s campaign extols a message of “Renewed Rebellion” and “Sundance Reminded,” urging festival-goers to look forward by looking back at the festival’s iconoclastic, anti-establishment origins. In keeping with the theme, we broke out the scissors and glue (and laser cutters and optical fibers) to create a series of original hand-crafted animations.”

New work from Nando Costa … from Nando’s site: “This wood engraved artwork is part of a 10-piece limited edition series I am working on. The original artwork was created digitally and later engraved with a laser on an untreated block of maple.
The title of this piece refers to the zip code of my neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Each of the forthcoming artworks will be inspired by a different location which I have been to and have influenced me in some shape or form. This particular one depicts in an iconic way the beaches and mountains near my home, while also graphically representing some personal aspirations and goals.
The dimensions of the piece are 11.25 x 11.25 x 0.75 inches. Each of the 10 will be individually signed and numbered and are available for sale on Etsy.
Rory Kelleher and Glassworks continue their extremely successful partnership with these three beautiful spots for AXA worldwide. In order to show perspective changing during this transition, Glassworks developed a proprietary technique. This used simultaneous footage from multiple live action cameras, blended and mapped onto an accurate representation of the set. This virtual world relied heavily on using our Spheron 360 degree camera to capture survey data of the set and with just two sweeps so causing minimal shoot disruption. The multiple camera approach allowed Rory to keep all the lighting changes and other dynamic aspects of his shot footage throughout the effects process.
