OnQue’s creative workspace.
After working in a bunch of agencies over the years where each workspace was very predictable, I found the OnQue workspace to be a breath of fresh air. After all, an agency environment should say a lot about the personality, character and nature of the people who work there. One look around the OnQue workspace immediately says you are working with [...]
For those who have been living under a rock!
Microsoft are very soon going to launch another revolution in the gaming world, only a couple of years after the launch of the Nintendo Wii. The piece of technology in question is not a new console, but just a very smart camera. Project Natal is a pretty amazing bit of technology, whereby a camera captures the motion of the user and [...]
The amazing work of Pierre Michel.
I should really not say anything about him or his works, but rather let them speak for themselves. Check out his work, they are incredible. A lot are solely done in After Effects, including many of the 3D type effects. Visit his site here My favourite is a short film he did for the 12th Annual French Film Festival entitled, Polar.
An absolutely incredible video.
This is a FULL – CG animated short film, that is so amazingly done that most times you actually forget that what you’re saying is not real. It tries to illustrate architecture art across a photographic point of view where main subjects are already-built spaces. Sometimes in an abstract way. Sometimes surreal. Don’t forget that this is ALL Computer Generated! [...]

With this new version we have the Repoussé feature which allows us to create 3D objects in Photoshop. This tutorial I will show you the Inflate option in Repoussé. This awesome feature, is also very bittersweet as it forces you to justify [...]
Exit through the gift shop.
Whether you love or hate street art, Banksy’s film “Exit Through The Gift Shop” is bound to engage any audience with the questions it raises about the formation of the artist, the commercialisation of art, and the authenticity of documentary film. The film gained rave reviews at the Sundance Film Festival, and has proven to be one of the hottest [...]
I’m baaack (part 2)
Our first destination on tour was to Koyasan, high up in the Kii Mountain Range, where we stayed in a monk’s monastery for the night. The site was beautiful with its traditional Japanese architecture and gardens. The rooms were also traditional with the sliding translucent doors, futons on the floor and…heated tables! Basically its a small table with a heat [...]
I’m baaack (part 1)
This is my first entry after being away for 3 weeks. And where did I go you may ask? None other than the weird and wonderful world of Japan! It is no exaggeration when I say the trip was totally awesome! Travelling with 3 other friends of mine, we spent the first week exploring what the city of Tokyo had to [...]
