B.Rad Callister, one of our Lead Designers at Album, starred in and collaborated on this original stop-motion video titled: Bruises.   We think you’ll agree his creativity is authentic and pure.  He’s too humble to post this and we’re too proud of him to let this one slide.  Nice work, Brad!

When creating an Internet marketing campaign, you need to know who is online, where they are going, what sites they visit most frequently, what attracts them to certain pages, what types of ads are they clicking on, how do they gather information, etc.

There are various sources of information that helps divide the demographic information and usage habits to better understand what is happening. However, there aren’t many things that are more understandable and fun (for the lack of a better word) than infographics and videos. Below you can see some useful ones that I located for you Album Admirers. Enjoy!

Keiichi has an interesting look at what the future may look like. Advertisement’s on every panel. Instant recipes accessed with a virtual keyboard. Virtual displays for all your products, and content levels on each. Event alerts for mediocre activities like your water is done boiling and your running low on milk. You can connect to millions of people by simply changing your view. Pretty amazing all the detail for what looks to be a low budget animation filmed in his kitchen.

Mike Judge has a different take on the future, what do you think?

One young man, Justin Bieber was discovered on Youtube.  Both Usher and Justin Timberlake went after him. He signed with Usher.
