Awesome staples city by Peter Root
Shred up the pavement, stop motion style.

The most freaking awesome skate video I’ve seen all week. I’ve been talking about wanting to get back into skating, which I stopped doing about 5 years ago, and this video has just given me that little boost I needed to get my deck out the shed and go shred some park.
Screening of “I’m Here” by Spike Jonze and Absolut
Last week I was lucky enough to get hold of a couple of tickets to the screening of “I’m Here” by Spike Jonze, a 30 minute produced for Absolut Vodka (a client at my work).
I’d seen a couple of snippets from the film and was excited to see the whole thing, particularly as it was being shown in Brewer Street mulit-storey car park of all places.
We arrived early and although it was a bit shit to be kept outside in the rain it was well worth the wait, despite getting rather wet. As we entered we walked down a flight of stairs and through a door into a very ‘non-carpark’ looking space with a popping bubble wrap carpet.
The free badges and drinks vouchers went down a treat and we began to congregate in front of the projected screen. It seemed that we were going to have to park our bums on the floor until a series of cardboard boxes began expanding with inflating air beds breaking out of them!
So we got comfy and the film began. The film was about a robot/computer love story and it was really good. I’d love to know if it’s going to be available for everyone to see soon but in the mean time check out the trailer below.
As soon as it finished we had to rush over to Waterloo for the premier screening of Banksy’s new film ‘Exit Through The Gift Shop’ and you can read my blog post about it here.
Toyota’s social media fail in Australia.
Australian blogger, Laurel Papworth, posted this INCREDIBLE video in November. It mocks Toyota’s marketing tactics and is fantastically hilarious. Watch the video and laugh, LAUGH GOD DAMN IT!
At this festive time I’ve seen and heard about lot’s of ad agencies giving Christmas gifts to their clients, partners, investors and fans. But this one from Mother is bar far the greatest, and it certainly has the viral factor.

The best by far. BRILLIANT.
Video interview with Senior Creatives: Amber & Dan
I saw this video on Biscuit Barrel ages ago but only got round to watching it now. It’s a great video interview with two really nice creatives called Dan and Amber from YKCR/Y&R and really inspires me to get creative again. I’ve been slacking lately and miss seeing an idea in everything I see and do so I wanna get back into looking and thinking at things.

Another great Mac Vs PC ad. I know I’m completely biased towards mac but I bet a loyal PC user sees these ads and thinks “I wonder what the grass is like on the other side” whilst a mac user sees it and thinks “man this grass is too green to be true”.
With great ads like this you wonder why the Windows 7 ads are so god damn awful. It’s almost like they forgot that Apple is cooler, funnier, more intelligent and better than them!
