Extra Tasty

Sunday, January 22nd, 2006

Tag based drink recipe site – at first I thought why??? but it actually makes some sense. Tagging recipes based on ingredients is a great way for discovering a great recipe by searching for a couple of key ingredients.

This another creation by skinnycorp (of threadless fame)

FBFX – movie fx studio portfolio

Monday, January 9th, 2006

Site is posters on a street wall. The nice touch is that torn bits of previous ‘pages’ remain on the wall after they have been ‘torn’ down.

iZombie

Saturday, January 7th, 2006

Print promotion for a animation/motion graphics studio called sixty40. I saw these posters stuck up all over a building after stumbling out of a pub in surry hills one night.

It’s great to finally see a pro-zombie campaign that doesn’t stereotype zombies as drab, bloodstained, flanelette shirt wearing slobs.
