Vimeo!

I haven't had too much of a chance to explore every inch of Vimeo and it's capabilities as a video site, but I will admit that it looks absolutely lovely. Plenty of hearty color palettes that are pleasing for the eyes to digest and illustrations that are fun and original without being obtrusive. Their video embed option even has a color picker so the vid will be properly dressed for display on your personal site! Fun!

Feel free to add me to your contacts should you start an account. My profile is a little empty since I haven't played around too much, but here's some psychedelic eye-candy to get freshen up your rods and cones:

Hipsters Included!

Amidst my rather chaotic and thesis heavy second semester senior year, I somehow managed to get involved with a certain school sponsored underage drinking animation project. While I don't typically get off on making PSAs for the likes of wide-eyed incoming freshmen, my mentor and great friend El Guary (who I originally worked with on animations for the ERBC project) needed someone to direct the artwork. Because it was El Guary, I couldn't say no.

With the assistance of my saucesome team of graphic designers (super props to my main man Aaron) we managed to pull off the following 10-minute animation in a scope of about a month. While I would have liked to spend more time on the visual flow of the animation, I think it turned out pretty well.

So here it is! The various scenes are supposed to captivate Vassar specific social situations and refer to some well known characters on campus, but it's all in good fun anyway :).

ee.en sent these to me this morning and made my morning.  All of these are dead-on as far as I'm concerned, and fortunately (hopefully), I can confidently say I don't fall into any of pre-ordained illustrations. At least, an illustration hasn't been rendered yet. *phew*.  Check out more in my gallery and even more at yourscenesucks.

But...uh...Steve?

I'm in love with ffffound, and it's forever. How could they have possibly archived all the images on the internet that I have ever wanted to see?

As seen on drawn.ca, Jeremy Dower's newly updated website has many new friends, the lot of which are exquisitely wonderful.

Sometimes, when I think up something, I will draw and color it:

I want to create and art like moki

Here is the Drawn! description:

Moki is an artist from Hamburg, Germany, and although her site is somewhat unintuitive to navigate, once you find the artwork you’ll be treated to a series of wonderfully dark and surreal images. There’s an interview with her here (where you can also see more of her work) in which she mentions that her main inspiration is Hayo Miyazaki.

I'm going to go draw some more now.

I had seen these little illustrations around the web before, and wondered how people got their own custom pixel portraits.  I finally thought to goolge it (duh.) and found the site where you can make these great little icons!  You can choose from a myriad of options for 16 different characteristics (hair, face shape, accessory), and adjust them to your pleasing.  Here are the two I made (before I told myself I needed to try and sleep)

You can access the pixel portrait site here! Go nuts.
(PS This would make an awfully fun QOTD...or...fun thing on the internet to do...of the day)
