The Talking (Badly) Dead

SPOILER WARNING: If you’ve not seen all three seasons of The Walking Dead, this video may contain some minor spoilers for you. Watch at your own risk.

I’ve enjoyed the Bad Lip Reading parody videos for some time, but this new one based on AMC’s The Walking Dead is by far the best yet. It’s amazingly well done, especially the voice acting which makes it even funnier. If you love The Walking Dead, you’re in for a treat. The Governor’s finale alone is worth the price of admission.

Massive LEGO Eva Unit-01 FTW

LEGO Master Builder Moko has been painstakingly working on a near 4ft tall LEGO replica of Evangelion’s Eva Unit-1 for the last 3 years. The artist finally unveiled the creation this week and the results are simply stunning. Fully articulated and containing no painted or modified bricks, the model weighs in at over 20lbs and perfectly captures the look of the Evas. Moko’s Flickr stream is full of awesome behind-the-scenes construction photos that detail just how much work actually went into this incredible creation. The scale shot of the artist standing next to Unit-01 is amazing. Check them out.

The User Interfaces of Oblivion

As an UI designer, I love seeing what artists come up with for fictional user interfaces. I’ve admired the work talented folks like Jayse Hansen has done for films like Iron Man and the Avengers for some time and secretly longed to do this kind of work. The latest work from Joseph Kosinski and Crater Lake Productions for the film Oblivion is pure magic. The level of detail, both animated and static, is staggering. I hadn’t intended to see Oblivion in the theater, but after seeing this wonderful work I just might. If you want to learn more, head over to GMUNK and check out their process.

My God, It’s Full of Stitches!

Dumb Ways to Die

I love it when artists manage to mix the adorable and the horrible with style. This disturbingly cute PSA announcement hits the nail square on the animated head and the results tickled me pink. The song in the video, by Tangerine Kitty, is even … [Continue reading]
