Carousel by Adam Berg

April 20, 2009 @ 1:08 pm

This short film by Adam Berg was created to show off the new Philips Cinema 21:9 LCD TV. As you may have guessed from the name, the new Philips TV shows films in a 21:9 aspect ratio without showing any letterboxing at the top and bottom.

Created entirely by Stink Digital, this new interactive campaign promotes Philips’ latest entrant into the television market, the CINEMA 21:9. Since the television’s 21:9 frame lends itself so readily to film, our friends at Tribal DDB, Amsterdam commissioned us to create a piece of filmed content that could hold its own with Hollywood’s best. Director Adam Berg responded with an idea for an epic ‘frozen moment’ cops and robbers shootout sequence that included clowns, explosions, a decimated hospital, and plenty of broken glass and bullet casings.

You can visit the Philips Carousel website to play with the interactive video. [via]

Guys who robbed Soulja Boy are incomprehensible

January 5, 2009 @ 4:27 pm

You may have heard that Soulja Boy was robbed at gunpoint on December 30th at his Georgia home. Ok, so what you say. Well, the guys who allegedly robbed him have posted a video online (on YouTube) about the incident in order to dispell some rumors that have been floating around about the break-in.

I can understand the need to disguise their identities and voices…but seriously…WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU SAYING?! This is ultimate come-back fail on the robbers part.
