JK Wedding Entrance Dance – 10M views and going strong

This is a great albeit simple video that has been recreated on the Today show (over the weekend) and viewed more than 10 million times this past month.  You can’t embed the video on a site (not sure why but YouTube won’t let you), so here’s the link. The music is a track from Chris […]

Lovely and Simple – Great Music, but…

Click here (Priscilla Ahn – Dream) to see a simple slide show created on Rock You which allows you to pick music and create your own slide shows with some simple editing tools.  Nice use of the media and easy simple transitions.  What makes it work for me is the music by Priscilla Ahn – […]

Eternal Moonwalk

As those of you know who are amigos of mine on FB, I am not too bullish on Michael Jackson and the ridiculous amount of coverage his death has generated. That being said, here’s a neat concept offering a tribute to the Gloved One and allowing all his minions to share their own interpretation of […]

Lonely Highway Fight – Krispy Kreme

This spot is beautifully shot.  Love the ominous sky with the dark rolling clouds – probably a cloud tank.  Every director wants a shot at a fight scene.  I would sure love to try one.   Nice payoff at the ending.  Simple, subtle, elegant.  It works.  Never seen it on TV, but it sure do work!  […]

Nice Evian France SPEFX Commercial

This is quite a production for Evian France.  Sure to be a hit.  However they did it, it must have taken a lot of time and people to make it look this good.  The babies don’t look quite real and there are little tells that show some frames out of focus and lots of narrow […]

File this one under ‘I’ for INSANE video

Not sure what this is about but it’s funny, sad and most peculiar all in one little poorly shot film clip.  Friends of mine are obsessed by these ladies so I thought it only appropriate to share the clip with my online video watching friends. These two fallen dowagers are discussing Opera.  The fur hat […]
