Tropfest Winner 2008

This is a little old but I thought it was a very nice short film. And great use of the typography we see in our day to day lives to convey a message.




Tropfest is the world's largest short film festival. It was founded at Sydney's Tropicana cafe in 1993 by Australian-born filmmaker, John Polson (swimfan, Hide and Seek, Tenderness) and now has a single-night attendance of around 150,000 in Australia each February, as well as thousands more in New York and other cities at other times of the year. It is known for being the world's most exciting platform for up and coming film makers to gain international exposure.

I want to kearn U and I


I love design nerd posters. They're like inside jokes that are very funny and sometimes very important to only a small group of people. I don't know..maybe I'm just lame but I think I am not alone. So here are a few nerdy posters. About design. And such like things that may not be completely about design. (I am very tired so I hope that I'm not only enjoying these things because of lack of sleep but because they are actually funny...)






I remember there being a website that had a whole bunch of these. Basically, the white part is the typeface, the red part is what it says about you/how it feels/what might happen if you use it. Who ever did this did a great job because most of them were pretty funny and pretty true.



Perfect thing to wear on a day you feel like getting shot. 



Ok..this one made me teehee. It's just very ridiculous and I like it. 





Ok, these are obviously starting to be a lot less designy and a lot more teehee-able. But I do like this one. Most because every time I do get the rainbow circle of doom, I think the exact same thing. Nothing too angry and nothing too intelligent just "This sucks" and "stop spinning already" and sometimes " I hate you". 







This last one I just like and happened to find in while I was writing this entry so I decided to share. Plus they made Poland legible so all is good in my book :).
