Demian Conrad Design have put together an extensive campaign for the Luff Underground Film & Music Feastival. The concept centres around presenting the events’ organisers with an additional layer of horror exposed by red lensed glasses. The technique has been used before but the strength of the piece lies in how consistent it is along with the rest of the style surrounding its presentation. Check it out here.

Shelby White made his ‘Typefaces of the World’ poster back in January, but has now made it round all the problems faced in printing it and it looks great. The detailed process to achieve white text on a black stock involved printing two layers of silver before overlaying the white on top. The result is a vivid and clear print though…nice. Buy your own here. See more shots here.

Simon Walker is better known for his t-shirt designs than his type and logo work. To remedy this, take a look at some of his hand rendered type logos and experiments. It’s a great collection, and although it seems to adhere to a quite common style, it’s done with commandeering skill. Check it here.

Steven Huybrechts directed this advert for Germany’s PRIME channel, showcasing big budget dramas from the US, namely HBO and Showtime. The solution presents each show with it’s own animated miniature diorama, which appear to act both as an advert for the channel, but also as the ident and spot for each of the shows when they air. The channel has both a great line up of shows, and a killer ident as well. Beats the BBC’s swimming hippos in my book… See how the rest of the shows are presented here.

archiebagnall: This morning was spent binding the final copy of my dissertation. Although I now have a lot more time to get on with the remaining juggernauht of project work, it’s a bit of a shame to see the dissertation go. Definitely an essay I’ve been wanting to write for a good long while. Hand in tomorrow at 1pm…

New Zealand are starting to get Mad Men on their screens, along with this fantastic advertising campaign, applying vinyl stickers to the side of buildings in homage to the show’s title sequence. Designed by DraftCB, check out the original sequence here. Source. EDIT: As Luke points out… it certainly seems to work better to those who have seen the show, lest you believe Mad Men to be about 9/11. Maybe in America… In New Zealand I think they pull it off.

My best eBay buy of last term was this amazing piece of Disney memorabilia- A limited edition programme from Disney’s Fantasia, which accompanied the first run of the film in cinemas in 1940. Limited to 2000 copies, the 30-page programme takes you through each movement of the film, with colour artwork and written commentary of the music and animation. Equally cool is that the film’s original length is a whopping 2hours40mins, Which did badly to the point an 80 minute version was released in cinemas quickly after the premier. This programme is for the whole feature. Michael Sporn Animation has scans of a copy, and you can have a flick through here.

The Circular Project was created by typographer Stephen Banham and artist Christine Eid. Presented on the streets of Melbourne, the project features a series of custom made man hole covers that present stories and history from citizens of the town. It’s a brilliantly put together piece with a nice variety of stories and creativity in how they’re presented. Would recommend a flick through here.
