THUGLIFE Graffiti Video Awards 2009!! I selected 50 nominees from my favorite collections. Do not imitate them, kids!!

The pokemon website was chosen for Games-Related category of 13th Annual Webby Awards Official Honoree!! Yes!
Unfortunately, it couldn't reach for the Nominees and of course Winners ("Official Honoree" means kind of "Shortlist"), but I'm still so happy! I'm very glad that I could be a part of the great project team members.
Thank you for all!! =)

Webby Awards Honorees Lists

This microsite was made for the Philips's "A Cinema 21:9" television. This is a totally simple website but also very impressive! I don't have any ideas how to make this kinda crazy technical movie, at all.
I like web advertisements, because they can be standing on a nice point between ads and arts then make the border to be obscurely. Of course it's not possible every time, at least easier than the other medias though, maybe.
Anyway, I love this one as both an advertising and a movie.

Agency: Tribal DDB Amsterdam
Production: Stink Digital
Directed: Adam Berg

Carousel: Acinema 21:9 Production

CLAREMONT
A Film by: Ari Marcopoulos
Director of Photography: Colin Blackshear
Producer: Neville Wakefield
Riders: Noah Sakamoto / Patrick Rizzo

I post this video because I was taught about the "High Definition" version at last! Thank you Iguchi-kun!
Anyway, it's an unbelievably crazy challenge.
It's not only a viral commercial movie by the apparel brand "Adam Kimmel", but also a very very awesome skateboard video. Those two riders Noah Sakamoto and Patrick Rizzo belong to the skateboard team called Sector Nine Skateboards. And also Sakamoto is a great artist.
Anyway, just watch the movie without any explanations!
