  • Wrangler is such a drag!

    01 Feb 2010

    An interesting interactive piece by Wrangler on how to make their online collection a little more fun to browse. You drag the model around and he reacts to the mouse movements. Still not live, but you can preview how it works in the following video:

    Also interesting is their previous interactive where you can click the video and change the outfit for the model performing the same sequence of movements with different outfits on.  Website here: http://eu.wrangler.com/bluebell/

  • Video in 360°! – Huh?!

    25 Jan 2010

    Easier to view it than to explain – go ahead and play the movie below and drag your cursor around (sorry about the autoplay!):

    The latest developments in 3D video technology have brought us Immersive video. This technology is starting to make its way into mainstream media and advertising more and more. Initially developed for Google Streetview, Immersive Media, the company behind the technology have now adapted the technique to video. This is perfect for capturing what a place would have looked like in a certain moment in time.

    Simultaneous camera feeds are recorded and then post-processed to be stitched together. Currently a CPU intensive and time consuming process, we will probably see this in real-time in the future as the technology evolves.

    We expect this technology to become another mainstream option in the way events are presented. Whether it be live concerts, sporting events or in news coverage, it will be great to be liberated from only being able to look at where the camera is pointing.

    Some more great examples here: http://360videoblog.blogspot.com/

  • 10 Inspirational websites (listed by w3haus)

    22 Jan 2010

    Sometimes you are simply stuck and can’t think of anything interesting for your clients, other times you have some spare minutes to browse the web. Either way, the following list will help you get unstuck and get those neurons firing! We have compiled a small list of sites that always have something interesting to inspire us:

    1) Dark Roasted Blend

    Quirky, interesting and cool collections of things from around the world. Not about trends, more historic random connections.

    2) The Cool Hunter

    No matter if you like architecture, accessories, stuff for the home - you will find new cool stuff in The Cool Hunter UK site!

    3) Trendwatching

    Latest trends and trendsetters - some great reports. Always thought provoking!

    4) Fast Company

    Ethonomics? We're not sure what that is, but they talk about it on this website! Innovation and the future of business can be found here.

    5) PSFK – New Ideas and Trends

    PSFK is a New York City based trends research and innovation company that publishes a daily news site

    6) Trend Hunter

    A mixture of social bookmarking and magazine, the trend hunter tries to keep up with trends in real-time. They even have top trends of the day!


    7) Eye Magazine

    All that's happening in the graphic design world


    8) The FWA – Favourite website awards

    Each day a new site. Always something interesting. They do tend to focus on flash sites though - they have promised an HTML5 site in the upcoming weeks though!

    9) The Uncool Hunter

    Tired of the cool and pretty? Try the uncool hunters. They dig up all sorts of interesting finds from around the world.

    10) Everything is Terrible

    A place to remember. Remember not to do it again!

    Oops, better stop at 10, the list was starting to go downhill.

    Please send any other inspiring websites to us (leave a comment) and we can publish them here as well. And we will be grateful – we do like our trends and inspirations!

  • Mesmerising us with Processing, by Robert Hodgin

    21 Jan 2010

    Meet Robert Hodgin and some of his mesmerising work done with Processing – art meets maths and physics through the body senses. We really like Processing, it’s a shame we don’t have the same power with flash or we could do even more cool stuff with it than we do now…
