"Waiting" is a process. It is something unavoidable in daily life. We wait to ultimately reach the thing or the person we desire. We usually have a positive mental image

G!VIOCE Recommend: “Imagine when you throw your broken carpet to the garden, it can be decomposed and provided nutrition to the earth; the detergent flow through the river can actually nourish the river; when the garden and farms alike have signs written, ‘Dump the Waste Here’…” Cradle to Cradle’s visionary eco ideal will overthrow your perspective on green design and reexamine it. Introduction In the nature, there is nothing to be disposed. When a cherry tree blossoms, the flowers will fall to the ground—nothing is being wasted here. Because all the dry branches, fallen leaves and flowers will return
在洛杉磯進行的E3展,Xbox與343揭露了Halo 4新的Trailer 「Awakening」,Halo 4 新的三部曲的第一波,上市預定為2012年12月(好長時間的預熱行銷啊)。Trailer裡,主角在逃離燃燒中的飛行器之前,從低溫睡眠中被喚醒……,Trailer 的故事劇情很短,但花了很多素材來鋪陳、來達成影片目的,並加深影片的張力。 一個成熟且目的清楚的商業影片,會把所有的資源與精力,運用在想說清楚的那個目的上,為了被消費者記住,「目的」是否明確非常重要,完成的方法也很重要。 換個說法,CG、3D、合成這方面的影像工業,一路走來從電影、遊戲、廣告、Animate等等產業來看,「擬真」一直是商業賣點。CG做得像真實的,頭髮會飄、毛會抖……,人的身體可以有四隻腳、長尾巴,但卻是會說話的人。我們可以用很炫的CG科技,讓消費這看到一個「超酷炫」的電影技術,也可以把很炫的CG科技,轉化成「運釀一股氣氛來引起共鳴」。 這支Trailer是個上乘之作,花了很多錢、用了很多人力來塑造一個氣氛,一個畫面裡有各種影音的元素來鋪陳氣氛,而非把時間與人員花在製作跳來飛去的模型、以及誇張的鏡位視角來拍攝主角揮舞手中的武器上。 這支影片與宣傳由知名廣告代理商McCann來負責,找到了這支Trailer的製作人員名單後,就很想寫這篇文章跟大家分享,一個CG或是一個宣傳影片,要結合許多的專業來完成,我覺得,我們目前還是在用廚師兼掌櫃的方法幹活,距離真正成熟的大規模商業影片製作……「兄弟們,我們還有很長的一段路要走……加油吧」 Halo 4 - Official Teaser Trailer https://youtu.be/kE-YP2t6Syo ------------------------------------------- 作者介紹 Bruce 曾擔任過國內外電視廣告製作、電影發行與戲院行銷、日本電通北京分公司創意比稿團隊、遊戲橘子內部導演,目前為日本遊戲橘子商品開發部課長(Section Manager) -------------------------------------------
A good design will enable people to have a better quality life! Taipei World Design Expo 2011 was held inside the Nangang Exhibition Hall.

Mobile phone makers are increasingly focusing on hardware upgrades rather than functionality. In the rush to introduce faster processors and add more Flash memory, they forget that it's the user experience that decides how practical the new hardware is. Though the iPhone dominates the smart phone market, once you remove the IOS system the actual hardware is something that any other smart phone maker can put together. What they can't imitate is how user-friendly and intuitive the design of the operating system is. The UI has always been the most easily overlooked part of software design. Smart phones are
Shakespeare said, "That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet" but in this time and period, smelling ‘sweet’ is no longer the trend. Source of picture: billboard.com Take Lady Gaga as example. It is alleged that her first perfume, ‘Monster’ is said to be launched in 2012. This perfume embodies her uniqueness and quirkiness and smells like a combination of blood and semen. As Lady Gaga described it, “smells like high-class hooker.” However, given that she didn’t even mind wearing a raw-beef dress to appear in front of public eye,

Introduction Game companies have always focused considerable effort on interpreting players' feelings and thoughts regarding their games. Current solutions mostly consist of quantifiable market research methods such as surveys, in-depth interviews, or focus groups. While these methods may extract information about player opinion and satisfaction after playing the game, there are hardly any instinctive tools which allow immediate measurement of player responses during game play. Perhaps psychophysiology, which has been applied in other industries for some years, will provide a suitable method to aid us in correctly interpreting player responses so that we may improve the user experience.

If I could shoot a commercial for this brand, I would shoot it this way..." And then he will ask you in a very serious manner if you think his script is incredible too. These commercial ideas that your friends love so much are often humorous and very "creative". However, "there should be a standard for how good an idea is, and not just an subjective opinion". I personally feel that the key to a good
One gloomy morning, a group of mysterious black-clothed people swarmed in and brought about 2 minutes of uber-merry dance, leaving passers-by baffled.

I don't remember who was it that told me it was best to sell water, if I had to sell anything at all. Why is this? A simple arithmetic equation will show that once you subtract the cost from the price at which bottled water is sold, you end up with a stunning amount of profit. However, everyone wants in on a good deal, which is why there is always a variety of mineral water brands on the shelves of any supermarket or convenience store. But when it comes to which bottle you purchase in the end, the deciding
