"Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" opening scene.....

www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bpP9sI72bM

A really clever opening scene- notice how even the pace/speed of the visuals fit in spot on with the music and gunshot sounds.

More Illustrations....

http://illustratorselbow.com/index.php

...Hannah Baileys illustrations are worth a look, along with Mark Judges & Kit Mason.

My all time favourite on this site is the work by "Alice Pattullo"....I LOVE the photographs mixed with textiles to produce almost a kitschy and retro feel.....so good...

p....p.....p.....p.....p....p....pick up a penguin

the history of Penguin books i find fascinating the more i read about their history. Finding this link i thought of the new project as it involves a cover design as well as the actual sequential art part. Enjoy and i hope you find inspiration and a new love for some of the designers in particular one of my favourites Alan Aldridge.

inspiration in other mediums......


hey you bloggers....

whenever i find i have creative blocks i try to gain new inspiration through watching other mediums such as mooching through youtube or as in this case going to creative websites and playing or searching, as i have found in the past that when youre not looking too hard the answer appears. So with this in mind i wanted to post a link to this website for a film called 'Donnie Darko'. If you haven't seen it well go on and buy it for three pounds form most consumerist chains as most independents have long since passed, but anyway thats me venting my anti- capitalist views as i frequently do in my head, more so in the relevance that this new project is for poetry. With poetry its about imagining a text and interpretation, websites can also show these same values. If anything have fun and enjoy the graphics alone.....
