Candle animation

I can't be the only one who has wasted far too much time trawling through YouTube video's of student animations, only to end up feeling underwhelmed and rather disturbed about the amount of time that students DON'T spend in the classroom. But every now and then, some how the creative forces align somewhere in between the stealing roadside safety equipment and hugging the lecture theatre toilet to produce a little gem like this.

Krink @ Faces & Laces

Inspired Bicycles

Extreme sports athletes don't receive enough praise for their skills and most of all they are the most inventive and individual sports out there. Being able to adapt to their surroundings to create new and interesting accomplishments for themselves makes them very creative and brave to do what they do.

This latest video shows Danny MacAskill show off his talent whilst riding round the streets of Edinburgh for Inspired Bicycles. The video shows amazing stunts performed by Danny just by using the surroundings of the town like a giant playground.
