I know I posted this Beatles Rock Band intro a little while back, but the amazing animation is so nice I thought it warranted posted a high quality version. Boing Boing has a nice piece on the artist, Pete Candeland, and art of the game.

Listening to my favorite Beatles’ album (Abbey Road) right now!

Since we all know how I love The Tudors, of course this fun mini site, created by Hornet Inc, made me quite happy! Even if you’re not very interested in the show or the time period, the animation alone makes it all a treat!

Life for a commoner in 16th century England was violent, dirty, smelly, and overall quite dangerous. Even popular recreational activities came with the threat of death and dismemberment. Life was good for King Henry VIII, however, as he had an army of servants attending to his every need.

“True Facts from Tudor England” is a series of viral spots promoting the second season of the Showtime series “The Tudors”. The Showtime web team created an interactive Tudor village based on Mixtape Club’s designs to showcase the animations. Each story is based on a real fact provided by the historical consultant for the series.

This is a great, quirky site my buddy, Morgan, found. Thanks! (I’ve been so busy recently, it seems, my friends and family are finding links for me, haha!)

Using only a few props, Lejo creates a unique type of puppet show. Lejo’s simple but unique puppets consist of nothing more than his bare hands and a pair of wooden eyes. Using these puppets, he makes a magnificent show without dialogue. The show is accompanied by music and is suitable for all ages and cultures.
