Social Experiment: You just need to look important

This is one of the most interesting social experiment I had watched this year. Fake bodyguards, assistant, photographers and camera crew to create "fame". Anyone can be famous for a night but this trick won't work twice..




 


 It is one those videos that really describes the desire of ordinary people being around famous people. It doesn;t matter who as it is the excitement of having the chance to encounter a celebrity whom they probably won't ever meet in real life that makes them feel lucky.


Now we're probably sitting back to judge those people but would we fall for this if we in this situation?

Kimbra

This song is really pretty sick with The Mars Volta vibe. These musicians know how to have a good time.

BMW M5 - "Bullet"

I really like slow motion videos. It is just so awesome to capture the details that is not noticeable to the eyes. If you are like me who digs this kind of stuff, you should check out this amazing slow motion by BMW. Aesthetically beautiful artwork with melancholy sound design.

Madagascar 3

Have you guys watched Madagascar 3? I think Dreamworks have done it again. I love the way how they create a unique personality out of each character and it is how different the animals are that makes the animation so fun to watch. I was laughing from the start to the end of the film.

The timing of the animals is fantastic and it mimicked the reality really well. The voice actors really bring out the characteristic of each animal and their accents played a great deal in the movie. I love the play with perspective during the circus performance and the sense of humor.

One big attractive bait about animation is the use of exaggerations that is so ridiculous yet believable at the same time.




One of the most memorable scene is when the catchy and contagious remix of the tune " I Like To Move It" entitled Afro Circus plays.

Madagascar is definitely in the Top 10 to wach animated film in 2012.

Why I like Adventure time

I'd been watching Adventure Time for a while now and this show is really epic! So here are my reasons why I like Adventure Time/ why I think the show is popular.

1) The character designs.

Each character is so different from the other. Each got their own style. A human, a talking dog, a lumpy cloud, princesses, flying unicorn, kings, talking game console. The crazy plot, wild characters and lame dialogues makes it really appealing. I especially love the colors and the rubbery arms.

2) The music.

Adventure time has got some really catchy tunes. I love the theme song. It is a basic three chord song but nonetheless a catchy tune on the ukulele. If you go on youtube, you can see thousands of covers of this tune.









One of my favourite songs on Adventure time - Daddy why did you eat my fries


3) Lumpy space princess

I really like this character a lot. LSP is voiced by Pendleton Ward (creator of Adventure Time). Lumpy space is a manly bimbo. Her lines just makes me laugh so hard and I look forward to her appearances from the show. "Oh my globe", "What the lump" The lumpy space language appeals to me.






4) The story behind each character.

I love it when the story of the past of each character is revealed. Such as the Lumpy space Princess and her world, Marceline's broken relationship with his Dad and the Ice King's secret. We are presented with the reasons behind the traits of each individual characters.







I guess there are more reasons why I like it but I think I'm gonna stop here. This show is definitely not for kids but as an young adult I love it!

Collaboration: Mark Foster, A-Trak, and Kimbra

Converse done it again. This time round with three amazing artist  Mark Foster, A-Trak, and Kimbra.




An amazing A-trak mix of Foster the people laid track topped with Kimbra's vocal. Love the layers. We are expecting to hear more of Kimbra collaborating with Foster the People. Their tour in June and July!

Kimbra mentioned it during an interview with Fuse. I can't wait!
