Cliché!



Cédric Villain, animation movies creator, had the incredible idea of making a video about the prejudice and clichés people have concerning France and French people...


Cédric Villain's Website.

And you? Did you have similar ideas about French people? What do you think about them?

Video of the Week: Eat, Learn, Move

  
3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage... All to turn 3 ambitious linear concepts based on movement, learning and food into 3 beautiful and hopefully compelling short films = a trip of a lifetime.
Eat, Learn, Move
  
  
Eat, Learn, Move is a series of three videos created by 3 men, Rick Mereki, Tim White & Andrew Lees for the Agency STA Travel Australia.

Going from the principle of the Elizabeth Gilbert's book Eat, Pray, Love, each vide explains one particular concept, without any talks but with a piano music.
 
   
These videos will make you want to travel the world...

How to save a fainting fan by Adele


After being forced to change the dates of several shows because of a serious chest infection, Adele was back on stage last week, in order to finish the tour that she had been forced to put on hold in Great-Britain.

And that's during the 20th of September's show at the HMV Hammersmith Apollo that the kindness of the singer was once again proved.

During her performance of Rolling In The Deep, a person faints in the crowd. Adele immediatly interrupts the show in order to ask for help, and doesn't start the concert again before being sure that the girl is ok and is taken care of.

It's not because you're an international star that you don't care about the others...

One Day On Earth


If you only had one day to document the world...
What story would you tell?
7 continents
192 countries
6,742,562,341 human beings
Thousands of cameras
24 hours
And you
On our shoot day
We will create a document
We will create a movement
To find out who we are.
                                        One Day One Earth



One Day On Earth is a unique project gathering thousands of participants around a same project: the gathering of videos, filmed the same day over all the planet during a 24 hours period.

The experience, which had been prepared since September 2008, happened for the first time on 10.10.10, and permitted to gather more than 3000 hours of videos; the success was so important that a new edition will happen on 11.11.11, in less than 50 days!

If you want to participate, visit the website: HERE.

Video of the Week: Everynone


Everynone is an anonymous person that created videos about everyone.

He tries to recreate the moments of a life, its laughs, cries, tears, oppositions, and words.

The videos are about simple topics: What's a moment? Which symmetry can we see between two opposites? What are the similarities of two different words?

It's a very beautiful study about the daily moments of our lives, and they are accessible to everybody.

You can see all the videos HERE.
You won't be disappointed, they are amazing!
