Russian "Gmail Art" Video - Life Sized Paperworks

From the description on the video page, this is:

A video that Saatchi Moscow created and produced for Google to attract more Russian people on GMail. 

Visually, it's a bit like our videos, but in a giant format.  Instead of pieces of paper, they are using giant pieces of pre-printed fabric.  The video is quite artful and well done. Isn't it funny too, that it's by Saatchi and Saatchi instead of Lee and Sachi?

Sooo Typical

Sachi came into the room where I draw and saw this piece of paper and nearly died from laughter.  It's true - I'm sorry to say, I had a problem coloring a checkered flag.  Such things are all too common in my world.

The Tools of Our Trade (analog version)

Like our videos, the tools we use to make them are quite simple.  Below is a quick tour of some of the non-electronic elements of our productions...

The photo below represents a near-complete selection of the tools we use almost everyday to create illustrations and videos.  You can view the photo below with "notes" on Flickr.com.

One Sharpie, One Wall - A Music Video

Nancy White pointed us to this awesome video.  From what I gather, it's a music video for the band Field Music.  Impressive. Maybe one day I'll have such mad skillz with the sharpie.
