I know it’s been awhile guys, but it’s been awhile since I’ve seen something that I really wanted to share on a semi permanent basis. This short film comes to us from Austrailia and it has such a simple, yet profound story I had to bring it to the table here. Let me know what you guys think and congrats to the creators of this short film for the recgonition at tropfest.

I love little love stories like this one, not to mention the way it’s told is through stop motion in camera effects… and it’s really rad how this guy does it. It’s not long so take a little moment to watch this

Here are three PSAs urging you to get an early start on preparing for what the future holds. My two cents? Brilliant! These were created by Jake Maymudes co-directed by Colin Gill and Produced by Peter Harding. This has inspired me to throw out my hyperspeed watch, that shit’s dangerous!

I’ve never posted a reel on here before because they’re often the same systematic formula and none ever really just stand out to me, and while there are some amazing reels out there, this one stands out, mostly because of the way he intros it… a clean background showing examples of what he specializes in and then he jumps into showing the other pretty stuff… anyway, it’s pretty rad, and clever… good job Rokkaboy!!

Looking Thru the B-sides is a short animation created for Fuel TV…. Made by Golden Lucky, this video takes you on an unusual journey through a colorful and wacky landscape. All while still telling the story of a rebellious skater on the run from a disgruntled police officer with a very menacing set of teeth. RAWR!

So yeah, watch it and enjoy the victory at the end…. because it makes no sense… but is awesome!, hoorah!

So I really like Lily Allen, and I love her ability to make songs like “Fuck You” and still manage to make them sound really fun and cheerful. This video was done by AB/CD/CD and while it has some rough spots, I love the concept and it’s a lot of fun.

If you’ve never heard of her, you should check it out, she’s got a nice unique style to her music

So it seems that Obama (a president who is known to smoke — but has yet to be photographed doing so) has signed a smoking prevention and tobacco control bill that allows the FDA to control packaging, ingredients and advertising of tobacco and cigarettes.

Hit the jump to learn more about the bill and hear my side, there’s a really awesome poll too, so hit it, it’s worth it

The law allows the FDA to reduce nicotine in tobacco products, ban candy flavorings and block labels such “low tar” and “light.” Tobacco companies also will be required to cover their cartons with large graphic warnings.

The law won’t let the FDA ban nicotine or tobacco outright, but the agency will be able to regulate what goes into tobacco products, make public the ingredients and prohibit marketing campaigns, especially those geared toward children.

So here’s my 2 cents — I’m not a smoker, so this doesn’t effect me right out. On the other hand, I know many people who do smoke, including my boyfriend and friends who spend a lot of time at my place. I’m very vocal about my dislike of the habit, so to me I’m hoping that maybe by regulating the tobacco industry, maybe it would either a) not fulfill smokers needs so they wouldn’t need to spend so much money on killing themselves or b) at least make the act of smoking less impactful on health.

My stepfather recently came out of the hospital for having a collapsed lung, he’s been a smoker since he was 15, he’s got the raspy voice and intense smokers cough and has just been diagnosed with emphysema, he’s not really that old, he’s not even over 65 (Okay I forget exactly how old my step dad is, so shoot me, haha) But the point here is that his smoking has given us all a fright. It’s very real that his habit has consequences. I don’t think my mom wouldn’t be able to handle losing him.

I just really hope this law will help smokers everywhere and not piss them off too much. There are too many non smokers out there who are very effected by those they know/love who do smoke.

I want to hear what you think, vote here in the poll and then please elaborate in the comments
