Another great package design

I like 'em upfront.

The outside is just as important as the inside

Once upon a time...(Narratives)

I already mentioned Old Boy (Korean with subtitles). But it's worth a second post. Incredible story of revenge.


Once. Not quite a love story but the lead male and female have great chemistry. Girl helps guy make an album. Such beautiful music in this movie.


The Classic (Korean with subtitles). A daughter finds her mother's love letters. The story switches back to her mom's past and her current love situation. The lead female plays both mother and daughter in this movie. But she does it so well. She's believable as both.

(500) Days of Summer. Not your typical boy meets girl story. The story is told through a random order of days. Joseph Gordon-Levitt (adorable) and Zooey Deschanel (love her) play off each other really well and they CAN act (sorry Edward and Bella).

WaterWorld

Cool ad for drinking water.

Old Boy

Netflix Old Boy. This is one of my favorite movies of ALL time. The style of the storytelling is so unique.

Typography, we love

Outline text from NYLON. Playful.

Sans serif font from GQ magazine. Classy and unpretentious.

The New Yorker title font. Classic.

Toy soldiers to create the alphabet. Creative.

Written all over your face

Images made out of text. Brilliant.

Post Secret

I found out about this awesome site from my one of my visual and verbal rhetoric classmate. People design their secret on a postcard and send them in.
