Smartphones offer endless creative uses for game-playing. For brands, it is a good means of interacting with customers and showing their presence in both urban and digital environments...

Kid Robot Fall 2009
The good folks over at Kid Robot have quickly become as known for their threads as they are their high-end toys. KR recently unveiled its Fall 2009 line which is said to be based on "non-conformists in structured settings." With designs from Kansas City-based toy artist MAD, the line has taken on a more cut and sew direction. Their look book, shot in the Scottish countryside by French bubble-fetishist and photographer TILT, features a host of new t-shirts, polos, hoodies and blazers. Unfortunately, toys are still sold separately. Check out KR's entire fall line via their newly designed look book, courtesy of We Are Plus here.

A boutique design studio with full post production capabilities, New York City's Plus et Plus (www.plusetplus.com) was primarily doing traditional TV projects when it opened in 2002. Today new media comprises about one-third of its business, and the sector - fueled by clients like Nike and Mac cosmetics - is growing every year. "New media is growing in a lot of ways; it's not just all kids' applications," notes Jeremy Hollister. "We still see TV projects repurposed for the Web, but more and more are developed exclusively for the Web or they are viral films designed for various platforms."...

Just as DJs distill the work of many musicians into a new and larger entity, creating a separate experience for the audience, so visual artists are tapping into their own cultural surroundings, sampling the influences they have accumulated, and integrating them into their work. Both the visual artist and the DJ can be seen as "selectors" who draw from trends and fads, the finished product being their interpretation of the art around them....

Plu et Plus CD Judy Wellfare: "We wanted the environment to be striking and visceral, yet still keep viewers focused on the beautiful acrobatics the liquid is performing. In the compositing session, we added gloss, treating the piece as if it had been shot on film, adding lens flares and other atmospheric effects that react to the surface of the liquid."

Formavision and Coke
Branded curation. Have we not been telling you that this is a definite growth area for 2007 and beyond? Further proof comes in the form of New York art bods Formavision helping Coca-Cola to design and curate the exhibition content in their New World of Coca-Cola which opened in Atlanta in June this year. For the central hub, Formavision created a large-scale mural in collaboration with New York design studio Plus et Plus intended to represent a lively and abstract projection of the earth. The designers took inspiration from the cartographic legacies of Galileo and Copernicus to re-imagine a map, introducing op-art elements and positive words in various international alphabets. The mural apparently symbolizes the optimistic outlook of the Coca-Cola Company on the world. Blimey! We can’t remember the last time we channeled Copernicus. Actually, we’re on deadline for this quarter’s Contagious magazine, so if we’re channeling anyone it’s Nostradamus....

To create a deep library of animated videos, JWT partnered with animators around the world, including New York-based Plus et Plus, Caracas, Venezuala-based Dancing Diablo, and their own in-house animators, JWTwo Animation.

Getty's "Big Idea"
For a new film series called "The Big Idea," Getty Images harnessed the vision of seven international design and directing talents and charged them with nothing less than interpreting and translating the titular notion to moving images. The initiative and the resulting films were intended less as a demonstration of the depths of Getty's image resources than of a new way of looking at idea and image creation and manipulation. "We wanted to explore how creative concepts come about," says Getty SVP-creative director Lewis Blackwell. "We decided to do this by collaborating with some of the best of the new breed of filmmakers. We wanted to stimulate and challenge creatives to see that the way we think and the resources that we work with determine just how big our ideas can get." Getty sought out imagemakers from across the U.S., Europe and Asia and invited them to create short films based on "the big idea," but the brief was left enticingly, and challengingly, open-the only stipulations were that the films be comprised of at least half Getty content (though most of the filmmakers used more), and all materials sourced and downloaded in hi-res from www.gettyimages.com.

HAPPENING | JEREMY HOLLISTER "PEACEKEEPING"
...Peacekeeping is the latest body of work from Mr. Hollister who has adorned the pages of Shift through his work for Manhattan Transfer and his contributions to Gasbook. Widely known as a prolific broadcast/motion graphics designer, my report focuses solely on a series of still images invoking ideas of war through it's representation of soldiers, tanks, and choppers. The irony, or rather it's cunning lies in the use of the peace symbol as the primary element in creating each of the images. Unlike much of the ASCII art we are familiar with (think M/M) which provide commentary on symbol/image, there is a nuance to applying such a politically charged icon as the peace symbol in order to create these images that embody power and destruction....
