celebrities get paid to get avatar-ized. It makes a huge impact, and has a catchy tag-line so, effective? maybe? and has a huge ad on mixi (popular Japanese blogging site)...but I can't get over the fact that they actually avatar-ized her.
いつもチェックしている*コミュニケーションゼンブノセ*にこれ載ってました。菊川怜をアバター化してしまいましたね…ミクシィにも展開している広告でワーナーのブルーレイを、みんなにはおなじみのアバターを使って宣伝しています。衝撃な上、コピーが覚えやすいから広告としては効果的かも？

let's just take a minute.

let's just take a minute to drool. over some alexander wang.

私今就職活動中なんですけど、面接で私のブログについて話していたら、助言として面接官から「ブログ日本語で書いてみたら？そのほうがレスポンス高いんじゃん？一応日本人だし」って言われました。そりゃそうだよね、って思い今回日本語も足すことにしました。このブログなかなか波に乗ってない感じで最近色々解決策を考え出しています。ちょっとマニアックなことになりますけどSEOとかも考えながら更新したりし、他のブロガーとのネットワークを広げてみる努力をします！あとやっぱりこのブログのコンテンツがバラバラだからちょっとつかみ所がないと思うので、もっと特化した内容にしたいと思います〜。

like whoa.

I was never really amazing at art. My Dad was though, and if I could do my life all over again, I would've tried to go to art school like he did! Looking at artwork like this tickles my creative fancy though...

Orlagh O'brien:
("Emotionally}Vague": How do people feel anger, joy, fear, sadness, and love?)
Q:Do your emotions have directions? If yes, draw arrows. (The answers were overlaid to create an averaging effect)


Q: How do you feel these emotions in your body? Draw anything you wish. (The answers were overlaid to create an averaging effect)

Anger&Sadness=an inner battle, while Love=an out of body experience? hmm...

a random accumulation of photos is always interesting to look at.

oh my gosh. I dug up this video I did for my Advertising class last year at UofT. It's a commercial for our product, "Fuse" (a printer and laptop in one). It reminded me of all the fun I had last year, good times!! haha.

It's very amateur and very student-project-esque, but who cares! It's hilarious to watch me try to act!!!
