Inspiration: Wolverine and 7-11 Slurpee Promotion

Wolverine 7-11 Promotion

Wolverine 711 Cups

Following the successful Simpsons campaign, 7-11 launched the Wolverine Slurpee promotion for the May 1st release. In the store, you could pick up a new slurpee flavor called Mutant Berry in a customized cup, displaying one of the three mutants (Wolverine, Gambit, and Sabretooth). On the Slurpee site, fans could connect with the profile for updates and provide feedback.

A more in-depth article could be found on CNBC.

Inspiration: ALS Ads

ALS ads

Communication Arts posted a review of the ALS Society of Canada ad campaign. The designs of the ads are poignant and conceptually powerful. This is a great example of how--as visual communicators--we could influence people's perceptions. The white diagram is of a maze, suggesting there is "no signal" in ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis).

Where the Wild Things Are Skateboards

Thought these products from Spike Jonze's The Girl Skateboard Company were a great tease for the new live-action version of "Where the Wild Things Are".

Inspiration: Wallace & Gromit, PhotoJojo, and BlueCanvas

Wallace & Gromit Harvey Nichols Ad

The loveable characters of Wallace & Gromit lend their charm to the ads for lifestyle store, Harvey Nichols. Click here for more details.

If you're interested in learning more about digital photography or getting new project ideas, check out Photojojo.

I've also placed a few artwork pieces on an artist social networking site, Blue Canvas. The Flash player is pretty nifty--artwork becomes embedded into the module and viewable in a seamless way.

Advertising in the Clouds: Flogos

Peace Sign Flogo

Once upon a time, plane banners and blimps were the mediums for advertising in the heavens. Today, it's Flogos! Made up of soap foam, this unique company produces logo brand shapes to reach a wide audience. The visual impact is quite appealing, being that we are always looking for shapes in the clouds. The life of a flogo is quite short though--from a few minutes to a few hours.
