LogoBook

posted March 1, 2017 #

Remember when it became clear that many big companies - Medium, AirBNB, Flipbook, Beats - had pulled their brand marks from the Logo Modernism archive? Remember when you wanted to browse the contents of that book and didn't really have much reason to purchase it? Well, look no further than Logobook! A massive repo of "the finest logos, symbols & trademarks."

It's similar to the BP&O Logo Archive but with more, so much more.

Japanese Animated Film Classics

posted March 1, 2017 #

I should probably wait a month or so until the Japanese Animated Film Classics archive has been translated to English but the offerings are too interesting to sit on. The site celebrates 100 years of Japanese animation by showcasing some of the earliest work - going back as far as 1918 with some pretty entertaining work!

It's a massive amount of things to click on and every result is a captivating artistic style. Even when the animation is somewhat crude, there's something entrancing about the handmade nature, the film grain and the stories being told.

Part Of Something Bigger

posted March 1, 2017 #

The Furrow does a lot of work for the likes of Facebook and Microsoft but their most recent release eschews the need for a client and focuses on their own creative experimentation. Collaboration is a minute of animation that packs in contributions from a list of designers and animators too lengthy to post here. It's a wild variety of styles but still feels cohesive.

Pear Cider and Cigarettes

posted February 27, 2017 #

Every year at Oscar season I try to find time to watch all of the shorts - live action, documentary and animated. The animation is usually the group that piques my interest the most. If you have time to watch all of the submissions, do it. If not, find time to watch Pear Cider and Cigarettes, a highly stylized noir story that reminds me of The Maxx, often exaggerated and grotesque in its proportions but to great effect.

It didn't win the Oscar - Pixar did with Piper - but it's still worth your eyeball time.

Vaughan Oliver

posted February 27, 2017 #

I'll admit it; somehow I managed to remain ignorant to the Vaughan Oliver body of work until recently. I've always been smitten with the early Pixies art and various other notable covers but hadn't put it together that they all spawned from the same mind. Ignorance is not always bliss.

Regardless, if you are like me and have not done your research then might I suggest starting with this gallery or the Discogs deep dive, the results are inspiring.

Outsider / VICELAND

posted February 27, 2017 #

I've been following Evan Husney for awhile now. He worked at Drafthouse for many years and now he's a producer at VICE. His latest undertaking is a show on Viceland entitled Outsider. The show premieres on March 17th and focuses on various underground filmmakers who have poured their heart and souls into their work and the results are.... questionable. Films like Miami Connection fall into that bucket; undeniably entertaining but clearly made by an outsider. See what I did there? That's the title of the show!
