Toronto's Gay Cruise Spots

Ocean's Thirteen: Breaking a unique aesthetic

Ocean's Eleven Teaser Ocean Boys have managed to take a minimalist design style, elegant and powerful that somehow matches the design of many of the posters of the seventies and even earlier in which technologies and high costs of the four colors would not allow such elaborate designs we're used to now.

Unfortunately, a few days ago was released teaser design of the third installment of this saga and has come to break with the previous aesthetic. For those who are not related to the term, the teaser takes its name from tease or "out" and are a piece of advertising, either graphical or audiovisual (a kind of microtrailer) allow planting suggestion on a future release with massive interest and recognized by the wider public by either:
  • The prestige of the director and the genres that has positioned
  • Be based on a bestseller (or a series, a book, a video game, cartoon , a comic)
  • be a sequel or prequel to a successful film
  • Be the first part of a campaign with huge investment and allowing use to go incóginta revealing clues about the content
Ocean's Twelve Teaser The graphics tend to ignore the teaser block of credits that usually appear in the bottom of the posters but usually include the date or season premiere, the logos of the distributors and producers, as well as the artistic and technical talents that may be relevant.

Both the teaser and the Ocean's Eleven Ocean's Twelve (developed by Indika Entertainment and Press Advertising respectively) were caracerizado a very clean design, two colors, with the number on the floor in red and the silhouettes of the characters in black. All this in an environment illustrated by the release date and the names of ever greater share of stars.

Ocean's Thirteen Teaser However, for this third installment (developed by BE design) have been used to design more comical and less simple, with a more aggressive visual load on a red background and 13 in the middle centering visual axis. Although it is curious that now, after two deliveries and success that preceded it, is when they are in a marketing managers to show the faces of the actors caracerizados, now that film and its characters are already well positioned in the collective imagination. And not only that, but also break with a style that had worked so well in previous jobs.

Certainly, for those who are curious to know who the Thirteen, the third party to which is added to the group is neither more nor less than Al Pacino.

Comment Inposttitle:amortization

Where is Carlos Blanco?

This morning I have received a typical e-mail chain that takes you to the video on Youtube some strange character ... It was titled MESSAGE OF CARLOS WHITE. The truth is that at first I thought meet with the speech of a politician, but I was rather surprised to run into statements that child prodigy who appeared speaking of Egyptology at the late show canceled because of Telecinco Martian Chronicles.

The boy appears much greater, not only by his speech (which for 12 years and were expressed as a scholar-aged), but above all physically ... While you should not have more than 22 years.

on video, Carlos talks about a trip he wants to do to a secret location. All told how to videoblog. As a testament to his parents and fans, but with a final unresolved.

However, if something has been achieved is that we start Youtube suspicious of videos like this.

Did the guy has definitely lost your mind?, Does the guy really have a project in mind?, "Sarda again?, Is all part of an international conspiracy of the Nerds Nerd and their desire to seize power ... world?

See the video and judge for yourselves, because personally I did not know what to think ...
