We usually show something at 4 on a Friday to cheer you up about still being at the office. I’m not sure if this will make you feel better, it might make you feel worse. But enjoy nonetheless! Crazy stuff.

Gerhard Uys Photography

rosealix — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 10:56:49 +0000

Gerhard Uys is a freelance journalist and photographer who works mostly in the lifestyle magazine industry. The following paragraph is everything you possibly could want to know about him.

Gerhard partied during three years of photography studies and worked his ass off during three years of journalism studies. He part-times as a photography lecturer. He is hyperactive. He likes cowboy boots, firearms, rock climbing and downhill mountain-biking. He only chills out when in the mountains. He says that if people knew how quick he shoots then they’d pay him minute-rates instead of day-rates. He spends his money on magazines and books and chicken burgers. He views chocolate as an essential food supplement. He wants a tattoo and a bakkie. He hates spelling mistakes. He shoots portraits and landscapes and music. He reads the Bible. He both loves and hates. He is both rich and poor. Be nice to him and he’ll give you his exhibition prints for free. He loves his friends. He loves his family. He wishes he took nicer pictures. He falls in love with some photos. He is not a biker, but he will be one one-day. He drives too fast. He wears a fake leather jacket.

If you need more you can go here. And here. Click through to see more of his beautiful work.

NMMU Posters by Boomtown

rosealix — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 11:00:26 +0000

Boomtown Strategic Brand Agency created these posters for Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University. They were tasked to portray the values of the university in a creative and visually arresting manor to the staff and students. The campaign is currently running internally and will run for the remainder of the year. They explain their method: We utilised hand illustrated, eye-catching visuals to portray each value and then silkscreened them in bright colours onto recycled card.

Tropitone sunless bronze – public benches

rosealix — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 08:00:44 +0000

A very interesting and bold ambient idea by morrisjones&co for Tropitone Sunless Bronze. They tell us about the piece:

Tropitone Sunless Bronze is a self-tan product that allows you to have perfectly tanned skin all year round. In order to stand out in a new era, we tactically spray-painted benches in public areas with the words, “Nie-Blankes” (Non-Whites)– a symbol typical to that of the old South Africa. Being such a strong symbol, it not only grabbed the attention of passers-by, but made a very strong impact. With the product logo sprayed onto the concrete at the bottom of the bench, it is very evident that thanks to the efficacy of the product, you will no longer have white skin.

Attention-grabbing, don’t you think?
