I´M OUT OF THE BED AND DRESSED - WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?*

* quote by Banksy

Ahh, while in Auckland, NZ, my girlfriend and I found time to watch 'Exit Through the Gift Shop', by Banksy, a British artist. It was better than expected, considering the fact Kat and I are both artists, well, in our free time, at least. She draws whatever entices her, unicorns, dolphins, yeah, kinda fairy things, and I, cartoons, people's face details...

Not only because of that we would watch this flick, but because it seemed really fun. Also it has been screening for a long time already and with so much buzz, we "needed" to see it. The result was really captivating!

Mr Brainwash (Guetta), Banksy (Banksy), Shepard Fairey, and others are amazing people.

Art was made very entertaining at 'Exit Through ...'. In the movie, Banksy says to anyone 'to do art.' I wouldn't be artsy on a regular basis. Maybe just in my 'free' time, and not so incisive as it is portrayed in the flick. The movie shows art mostly in this perspective, and as a share of the street art movement.

Going from art to fitness for a little while, the monthly publication Men's Health magazine has displayed on its pages that people who scribble and draw, develop mental focus and stimulate the brain.

Art is all about that. You make yourself entertained and develop new abilities. Mr Brainwash is a proof of that (!!) Well, Banksy may deny it, but I think he's a bit creative indeed!

Wayne Rooney in billboard for the World Cup 2010

This is my first post, and I would like to share my likings and 'dislikings' on all different topics in the media, with all that would stop to read some ingenious points by a random person in the crowd.

I’ll start by talking about the latest effort of Nike in the 2010World Cup. The spot "Write the Future" is entertaining, and well done.

Some time later I found out the director of the video is Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, a talented film director, who has won an Oscar and who improves the movie industry every time he makes something new.

Above all, however, Nike is the name behind the ad. The company has some eccentricities on TV and there's always a chance for them to reinvent themselves, proven with the video, which is why the company is a big player (yes, almost literally) in the industry.

Video is a successful tool in advertising that helps marketing significantly.

The new products that go with the TV ad, also have great creativity, like the crayons made by artist Diem Chau, commissioned by Wieden + Kennedy Portland agency, in US.

Nike is writing their future now with this excellent campaign, and unstoppable attitude.

I’ll be offering my thoughts and opinions whenever I get the chance on this blog.
