• Death of The Bar-T: An Evocative Short Film from Carbondale's Anson Fogel + Forge Motion Pictures

    / Comments (2)

    Anson Fogel of Forge Motion Pictures — who shot, cut and produced the beautiful Colorado Tourism spots for Karsh — has just release his film, Death of The Bar-T, for public viewing on the interwebs. The short is a personal experiment, written by Anson and shot in the fall of last year over five days outside of Marble, Colorado.

    As Aspen ShortsFest describes it, the film is "An evocative meditation on the transformation of the local ranching tradition as seen through the eyes of one hardworking old-timer." It stars Paul McLean – a Denver-based actor — and was filmed with a crew of about 15 people, with Anson doing lighting, FX, color correction and operating the camera himself.

    The film is part of a loosely related three-part series of shorts looking at life and characters in the modern West. The second is shot but not yet completed. The third is in casting. The film won the Creative Excellence Award at the 5 Point Film Festival this year.

    It's a nice 17-minute treat for a Friday afternoon from one incredibly talented guy. Sit back and enjoy.

  • Jerry Seinfeld's 57 Girlfriends As 1

    This photo, created by photographer Richard Prince, is the average of 57 different women — the 57 girlfriends Jerry had in the show Seinfeld. Prince has been exhibiting the artwork, titled “Jerry’s Girl,” and is planning to sell it as a limited edition of 57 prints. Not sure we'd want it hanging in our chateau, but the idea's very cool.

    Cool looking. Cool sounding. Just an all-around cool spot. 72andSunny really know their craft and we love it when agencies sell in video game spots that don't show the standard video game play highlights.

  • Integer Launches Their New Site

    / Comments (20)

    We're not exactly sure when this site launched, but two days ago Integer tweeted, "Something is new at integer.com." So we're assuming that was their soft announcement of the new site.

    Maybe we haven't had enough coffee this morning, but we find the site oddly designed and quite difficult to navigate. There are many areas that feel like glorified PowerPoint presentations. We might be missing something — but for a global agency with 21 offices around the world, things don't feel completely cooked.

    What do you think?
