Besides being an incredible piece of work, this video really shows how beautiful the night sky is when you get out of the cities here in Australia. Seriously, I don’t think, outside of the deep woods in Canada, I’ve ever seen so many star as I did when I was at Uluru and in Tasmania.
Yet another one to put on HD, darken the room and turn the speakers up. Oh, and I hope you’re checking this out @catscram.
This is fantastic. Hilarious short which is ostensibly an ad for Red Giant a video effects package (hell, I’d buy it on the strength of this vid alone.). So great if you can actually do this all with the package. Check it out.
Still working on getting the script written and looking at getting a HeroPro for the short shooting next week.
Besides the fact this is an utterly fantastic animation, you should be scared of the first code weapon that’s successfully struck a blow, destroying centrifuges at Iran’s nuclear facilities. Who’s responsible? Who knows?… but the fact it’s now available for just about anyone to dissect and redesign is something that should be of concern to everyone. Check out the video.

Haven’t played it all the way through yet, but kinda impressed with the start of The Curfew which was featured (and won Best Educational) at the Games for Change Festival . Besides the fact it represents a scarily possible England (seriously, when I lived there, there were “report on your neighbour” posters up).
The production values are high and the scenario not entirely implausible. Check it out. Let me know what you think. Too heavy handed? Too simplistic? Is it playable or did you get bored easily? Is it compelling? And, most importantly, how would you have made it better?
Fantastic presentation and argument on the next step for true gamification experiences and how they must evolve. Insightful.
(best if you watch it full screen btw - it’s the little button in the right hand corner)
Lurv this. I think all cities need moar of this.
Also, love the leap of faith while the oblivious passerbys walk over the chasm.

This is absolutely lovely. Watch in full screen with the volume up. Very chill.

Cool. I so need to learn to play an instrument.
And check out this amazing guy doing the same thing with cello and beatboxing

So impressed with the black and white art and aesthetic on this game video. Sadly, thought it was an iPad game but is only on the XBox Live Arcade. Sad panda. Just look at it though. Really.
Anyone played it? Really need to get myself some consoles at the house to keep up on these things.
Just yesterday was talking with someone about how important injecting humour into the Canadian political debate was now. For example, the tongue-in-cheek political pressure ads prevalent in Australia (and prevalent from my last gig at GetUp) are great examples. Love this ad the Cancer Council in Victoria piut out for plain packaging on ciggies taking off of a product recall announcement.
