Ohio

Brent - consider this your guide to L.A. when you arrive.

Everyone else - It's a little long but there's a really curious thing going on with the production of this piece. They set up the main character through a series of candid, impromptu conversations with strangers in L.A. But then it almost seamlessly transition into a typical narrative. I can't tell if the dialogue is just written really well or if the two characters just riffed a lot.

Inge Druckrey - Teaching to See

And now for something very few will watch the entire way through. Chris' topic of design and typography reminded me of this piece that Chad had shared with me a while ago. If in a design-centric mood, take a watch of this.

Visually, the documentary isn't the sexiest thing on the internet but it gets that job done; I lost myself in it once in a while. Also, I'm noticing the use of classical music is a great "public domain" soundtrack for just about anything. It reminded me of one of my favorite posts.

DJ Snake & Lil Jon - Turn Down for What

Probably NSFW-ish....But I watched it here, just duck down or turn your monitor or something.

One more for True Detective

I found a great article that dives into the making of the TD opening title sequence. It includes stills from the original pitch, techniques, and how the art and writing came together. It's also a solid example of how to "show your work".

The Coen Brothers are doing a new Fargo miniseries on FX. Hopefully Frances McDormand will show up.

Font Men

Really love this short piece from dress code about the work and process of artists Jonathan Hoefler and Tobias Frere-Jones.  Fonts are one of those ultra-specific forms of art that most people probably don't stop to think about, but when you break down fonts and the reasoning behind them, you open up a whole world of interesting problems and solutions. I also really love the animation they have sprinkled throughout. I can't think of a better way to illustrate the subtle differences between a single font type.

I'm not sure if this has been posted here, but it's great insight into how content is delivered. "It's all story"

True Detective intro

I think this is a nice, interesting advancement of what has become a really obvious treatment...the whole film-burn-y, image layering thing. The image collages are content-driven and foreshadow the connections that are made during the murder investigations.
