…having been previously employed as a fluffer – your mind naturally quickly races to a paper blower branded with little pills. The internal sales staff [all of whom are most probably addicted to Viagra and are only conscience for a few hours a day] groan unusually loudly and force a warm shaft of breath into the small plastic mouthpiece in a mass display of unbridled excitement. Yay – Viagra is 11 years old. Pffffweeeeeeeep.

The world loves meerkats. Pepsi [not an official World Cup sponsor] even reckon that a team of the small, ratlike rodents can take on World Footballer of the Year – Messi.
So seriously now – they don’t look too bad on the ball. We could at least see what they do with a Zimbabwean side and go from there.

Using a host of innovative filming techniques, The Cove is a documentary feature that tells the story of ecological genocide in Japan. As the promo copy promises, it looks like the combination of Flipper and The Bourne Identity. It’s one we’ll be looking out for.
And here’s the iPad acting like a giant iPhone…
Logorama: A short film composed of logos is up for an Oscar
Posted on 05. Mar, 2010 by Jonathan Cherry.
Nominated for a Best Animated Short Oscar is a film called Logorama.
It’s features LOTS of logos – which is sure to make marketing folk very excited. It just makes us hungry
You can watch the whole thing here.
Beer for you, chocolate for her…and Wrestlerish for after

Beer, chocolate and bands from Pretoria are not our usual combination on a Friday evening, but it will be tonight at &Union.
Sounds dangerous…and right up our alley.
Filmed at 1000 frames per second – these images of dogs being dogs are rad. Dig the jumping shots the most.
…and let’s not forget that Brazil are determined to keep this ad under wraps
Posted on 03. Mar, 2010 by Jonathan Cherry.
Naturally we can fully understand how this would be highly offensive in a conservative country like Brazil. What were the advertisers thinking?
Paris Hilton beer ad pulled – Press Association
The same country that so proudly claimed some accolade for having lots of people pose naked on the steps of the Sydney Opera House [or something shameful like that] is now wanting to ban Pamela Anderson and a female co-worker pouring milk over each other as depicted in this ad.
We don’t think it’s that bad. A standard episode of eGoli used to deliver pound-for-pound more flesh time even on the off days.
It’s perplexing. Then again there is no crime in Australia – so we wouldn’t want the citizen to get any funny ideas about developing a pulse or anything over there and starting any.
This ‘machine’ took a couple of months to build and the entire thing looks like it was filmed with one take.
