The launch of the Bravia (Sony Mobile Bravia Engine brand) was supported by an advertising campaign, with a commercial featuring 250,000 brightly colored rubber balls (real, not computer-generated) bouncing down a San Francisco street. The idea was brought to life by director Nicolai Fuglsig with the help of Los Angeles-based special effects guru Barry Conner. In addition to the 12 air mortars, Conner deployed three giant skips, each lifted 50 feet into the air and containing 35,000 colored bouncy balls. The first shot required 50,000 balls to be sent cascading down a hill, colliding at a road junction with a further 50,000 that had been fired along a side street. A team of 50 interns was on hand to gather up the balls for the six takes it took in the more than four days to film the advertisement. Golf nets were erected at the sides of the street and every drain was blocked.
And honestly, who doesn’t love bouncy balls?
The commercial is accompanied by the song "Heartbeats", written by Swedish duo The Knife and performed by José González.
whats that sound? Charles Philip Shangai.
Charles, originally from Milan, has for several years lived in Shanghai’s French Concession with his best friend and designer partner Sheila Pitigala.
Together they created their collections, touching upon their favorite elements: the ease of Moroccan babush, the elegance of the English gentry slipper and the freshness of striped cottons and soft colorful linens. The shoe design is executed completely by hand using traditional methods and the finest fabrics.
So slip on this modern take of the classic slipper we all love, put on a load of chic and you will find yourself transported into a world of cool elegance.
come on in!
Winter shminter. We are warm-weathered souls. I wanted to share these gorgeous photos to start the day on a light, breezy note. It’s easy to get bogged down in cold weather and work this time of year, but these photos remind me of a sunnier time, when the summer air makes just about anything look beautiful floating around.
It´s all about Bags..
Blanco is a Spanish company specialized in the design, production, distribution and sale of all types of accessories and clothing.
The attitude of the classical trench, the importance of jeans or the sensitivity of the lace; each of the styles is reinforced by the adjustment of the accessories which accompany it. With proposals for all tastes, Blanco shows that the accessory is vital to define a more or less sophisticated look; more or less casual. Everything depends on the occasion and, self-evidently, personal allure.
Here are some pictures of newest Blanco 'I Love Accessories' spring/summer 2012 collection. Enjoy!
pssst.. static hair!
Does the dry, winter weather make your hairstyle look like Albert Einstein sometimes?
Without launching into a lesson on electrons, here’s a simple explanation of static: When the weather becomes cold and dry (ahem, winter), there is not enough moisture in the air to keep your hair hydrated.
2. Spray your hairbrush or comb with an anti-static spray before you run it through your hair.
3. Keep a fabric softener sheet handy and run it over your hair when it starts to get out of control. Carry it in your purse so you can use it several times during the day if necessary.
4. Avoid hair products that include ingredients that will dry out your hair, such as alcohol or harsh chemicals
creative inspiration.. paper flowers
These are easy-as to do and look cute stuck against the wall with masking tape or hung from the ceiling.
You will need:
3 paper doilies per star
Double-sided tape
Fold the doily into a concertina (like a paper fan).
Fold in half
Stick the two ends together with the tape.
Repeat with other two doilies so all three are connected and are fanned out slightly. Then stick on the wall or hang.
P.S. This project and beautiful pictures are from The Happy Home blog, by Belinda Graham. Thank You so much!
