Now we finally got Episode 11 of the ATA up and running. It is made by Francesco Giroldini & Brendan Carroll, both currently working at Dreamworks, and is an orchestrated piece of violence and humor with the title: The Attack of the BearDuck.

Las Vegas, 2011

I held a talk for the 24/7 creative, Visual Life, today at the Marquee Nightclub sponsored by Intel & HP, arranged by the David All Group. It was a rocking evening only leaving me with a ton of questions: Why wont the Lavo allow man-bags? Where is the Las Veags machine gun shooting range? And how the hell do you remove glitter from a suit.

Hers a couple of clips I made for the event:

Vegas

I am leaving for Las Vegas tomorrow to give a speech at the CES for HP & Intels 24/7 creative. I am really exited. There will be music and haunting clips from my past, and a big bulk about the AtA and Guggenheim, Its gonna ROCK. Thanks to the cats at the David All group for letting all this happen! I have a few more hours of prepping to do and then to bed...

Kængurulommen

A few months back "Dansk Videnscenter for Ordblindhed" (Danish Knowledge Center for Dyslexia) hired me to create an intro for a series of interviews, designed to inspire parents with dyslexia to read with their smallest children - to stimulate the future reading abilities of the toddlers. It was made in a couple of days, and was a really funny small project.  

The series is called Kængurulommen (The kangaroo pocket), because most parents are sitting with the offspring on the lap while reading - Hence the Kangaroo metaphor. You can see all the interviews on NOTA's homepage or on youtube.
 
And here is the 8 sec intro I created for the project.

A merry Christmas to you all!
