World Wide News -> Saint Paul St. Rochester

Thanks in great part to an inspiring trip down Saint Paul St I've decided to completely revamp my site and develop some sort of focus for it. What that focus will be is TBD, but within a week or so I should have something up. If you would excuse me, I have a date with Joomla!.

Sony Cyber-shot

It begins(in poor lighting)

Tomorrow, the world will know another self-important asshole with a camera and a blog. American Beauty here I come.

Rob Zombie's Halloween

At least it doesn't look like a glorified Slipknot video (yet)

Rob Zombie is remaking Halloween. I don't hate this trailer as much as I should. I've come to grips that nothing in the film world is sacred anymore and unlike most purists I'm welcoming the opportunity for someone else to have a go at it, even if it fails miserably. One has to take a break from spanking it to the original anyways.

P.S. Apparently Rob Zombie is making a lucha/burlesque themed animated comedy called The Haunted World of El Superbeasto. Proceed to the site with caution, not because of the non-existant nudity that they warn you about 20 or so times before you get to the meat of the site, but because Rob Zombie has apparently built himself a time machine to take him back to a time when it was cool to make a flash site with tons of flashy things and wacky sound effects. Woof.

Quicksand

Peep the security guy around 2:30

I've been grooving to this band pretty regularly for the past month or so. I say grooving because I can't imagine you could do anything else while listening to Quicksand. Enjoy.

Helvetica: The Film

This is old news to a lot of people, myself included, but I didn't truly get excited about this film until I noticed that it's showing at RIT in May. In Michael Bierut's discussion of the film, he had this to say...

I was in the audience for a sneak preview at MoMA several weeks ago, and I'll give you my early review. The film is great. (And not just because I'm in it, nasal Cleveland accent and all.) Huswit has structured the film's interviews to create a perfect short course in postwar graphic design. Luke Geissbuhler's cinematography is beautiful, and the music makes everything seem positively hip. I left the preview feeling thrilled to be a graphic designer.

I'm excited. Unfortunately Ive been cursed with a creative brain and little patience for formal training, and while I enjoyed and excelled in the typography class that I took my freshman year of college, I'm far from being able to declare myself a true font-o-phile. It's films like this that will allow me to feel and act like a true designer and hope that my execution catches up.

Check out clips/trailers and info about the film here.
