I was inspired by Chrissy Lynn's post and was reminded of one of my favorite videos by Stephane Sednaoui, Acqua Natasa . He's an amazing director. Check more of his work out in the Directors Label box set (2nd edition, I think) if you are curious about his stuff. Enjoy:)
I saw an amazing show on the 22nd in NYC called Fuerza Bruta. The music, conveying message through dance, the intense ways the movements were displayed from busting through walls, getting shot, running along the walls and swinging through the ceiling.. even an immense water stage that suspended above our heads while dancers slip and slided above us.. check out this link, it was amazing and so inspiring! http://www.fuerzabrutanyc.com/
I fell in love with Laura Laine’s work when I saw one of her illustrations in an article on New York Times Magazine last year. Her beautiful and amazingly detailed drawings really caught my eye. I hope you guys enjoy them too.
This is the active homepage of the Academy of Art MFA class 'IDEATION & PRESENTATION' that was brainstormed by Will Mosgrove and myself back in 2006, and is now in its second year of application.
Its creation and intent is to foster an individual's resolute conviction of their visual ideas; that their indelible ideative imprint is manifest in critically actuated presentation materials as well as practiced verbal elocution as being paramount. We take an aggressive approach to inviting outside guest presenters/critics in to every class that also assign bespoke projects in advance of their appearance to bridge those expectations and provide insight.
The summation of intent is to elicit a full complement of preparedness to pursue a career as a commercial artist with vigor, esteem and success with conviction; and not by following.
Thanks for visiting, please feel free to contact any of us with queries/comments.
