I have no connection whatsoever to Lipton, I was just told to do a fake commercial for Motion Graphics class, and I decided to do tea (because I was drinking tea at the time). I chose Lipton because... well they're well known... and they're logo is easy to draw. Oh, and the song is the intro to This is Your Life by Newsboys (normally I don't listen to a song with that much chorus-repetition and sap, but my iTunes was on shuffle that day. It was a total light-bulb moment. It's so delightfully commercial!)
Another animation test for Carpe Noctem. I plan to do all the hand-animating this weekend on account of the school computer labs being shut down. It's due to this little world-leader get-together called NATO. Maybe you've heard of it. I understand that the university trying to avoid innocent students getting jumped by crazed protestors... but I can't help but note that this never happened in Champaign-Urbana.
If you're struggling to get This is Your Life out of your head now...
Earworm of the Day: Kids in America as sung by Cascada and seen in the English-dub of the Digimon Movie. Was I a Digimon nerd as a kid? Yes. Yes I was. In my day it was either Pokemon, Digimon, Yu-gi-oh, or Dragonball Z... and I chose Digimon because:
- the monsters spoke in full sentences
- "surviving in an alien world" is a more compelling premise for a TV show than "competing in a card game tournament".
- the fight scenes didn't last a month.
Strangely enough, fast-paced fight scenes are also a reason I like Nickelodeon's Avatar. Personal preference I guess.
