Duelity by Seth Brau

Created by Vancouver Film School students Marcos “Boca” Ceravolo and Ryan Ulrich, Duelity is a pair of short animations that describe the beginning of time from a creationist and evolutionist perspective. An ironic take on the subject, Duelity tells the creationist's version of the beginning of the universe using the language of science and presents the scientific cosmology of evolutionists using Biblical lingo.

Beautifully designed and illustrated with a very clean, tight animation style, the shorts can be watched separately or side-by-side simultaneously. The look and imagery of each piece coincides perfectly with the scientific or religious wording. It's a paradoxical experiment that shows just how much the language we use can influence the way we present and receive ideas. Watch and download the piece here.

The...
On Air
For over a quarter century, MTV's been mining up-and-coming talent to create what are often the smartest, funniest, and all-around most compelling bits on the station—or anywhere on TV for that matter. Those old enough will remember the early wacky, animated logos, but more recently MTV's channel ids and ads have taken the form of short films and are often where designers like Huntergatherer...

One of the few showcases for cutting-edge music video and motion graphics work, these two exclusive images are both by Japanese directors featured in the 5th annual "By Design" series in RESFEST 2005's jam-packed lineup. Culling the...
Lobo, 6 Questions
Since first watching Lobo's reel, I've played it probably 20 times - as much for the fluid motion of an unfurling pink hibiscus (for Diesel), or the geek appeal of a textbook-style diagram of a carbonated soda, as for the anthemic choice of soundtrack, Alice Cooper's "Drones." When I ask creative director Mateus de Paula Santos why he chose the music, he answers simply,...
