Pictoplasma- Was amazing to watch on in class. The music was amazing and the visual effect and concepts the had fro each song was amazing. Those video where a great influence ti me because as a artist Im a DJ well a push-play Dj. But I it made me want to learn how to do animation like that and perfect my craft of mixing music even more.

I love the flow of music it take me to another world That I can live in my mined and the Pictoplasma videos really took my mined to another Level of thought.

Art & Copy

Facts: ART & COPY is a powerful new film about advertising and inspiration. Directed by Doug Pray (SURFWISE, SCRATCH, HYPE!), it reveals the work and wisdom of some of the most influential advertising creatives of our time -- people who've profoundly impacted our culture, yet are virtually unknown outside their industry. Exploding forth from advertising's "creative revolution" of the 1960s, these artists and writers all brought a surprisingly rebellious spirit to their work in a business more often associated with mediocrity or manipulation: George Lois, Mary Wells, Dan Wieden, Lee Clow, Hal Riney and others featured in ART & COPY were responsible for "Just Do It," "I Love NY," "Where's the Beef?," "Got Milk," "Think Different," and brilliant campaigns for everything from cars to presidents. They managed to grab the attention of millions and truly move them. Visually interwoven with their stories, TV satellites are launched, billboards are erected, and the social and cultural impact of their ads are brought to light in this dynamic exploration of art, commerce, and human emotion.


This was a film I also watched in my advertising class. I was very useful to me to understand how people are very influence by adds and how simple they can be. Adds are part of our everyday life and this film gave the people a better understanding on how things that work in this system. I hope up coming Advertisers can learn from this film on how with strong copy,punch lines, ideas concepts, they can make an ad that is effective. The basics I learn from my advertising class to make a good ad; it must grab attention, stick to memory, must be believable, interesting, communicate clearly, and be different from all the other cheese adds in the world.Art and Copy was a film that should something that will always be in our lives.

Robert Crumb

Wikipedia Info:Robert Dennis Crumb (born August 30, 1943)—known as Robert Crumb and R. Crumb—is an American artist, illustrator, and musician recognized for the distinctive style of his drawings and his critical, satirical, subversive view of the American mainstream.Crumb was a founder of the underground comix movement and is regarded as its most prominent figure. Though one of the most celebrated of comic book artists, Crumb's entire career has unfolded outside the mainstream comic book publishing industry. One of his most recognized works is the "Keep on Truckin'" comic, which became a widely distributed fixture of pop culture in the 1970s. Others are the characters Devil Girl, Fritz the Cat, and Mr. Natural.
He was inducted into the comic book industry's Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame in 1991.

His work is amazing, the weird cartoons, opening your mined to these dominating women he love, to show the power women have over him and the world. showing the humor in funny sex antics. To only live in his mined for a day world be epic. The level of crazy could be compared to Andy Warhol, But all artist are crazy and have great ideas to show the wold. I believe crumb is really trying to show use another way to think about the roles we play in life. he lives his wold within his drawings. My favorite of his is Fritz the cat what is a funny cartoon that is rated X back in the day. Click Here to watch Fritz the cat
