Badass Animated Short LOGORAMA is Nominated for an Oscar [VIDEO]

Jeff Lein over at News in Film pointed us over to a Vimeo page where François Alaux, Ludovic Houplain and Herve de Crecy’s short LOGORAMA is being featured. The three directors make up the French collective H5.

Watch two Michelin Men chase down Ronald McDonald in a re-created Los Angeles landscape made up of over 2000 logos. It’s a stunning 17-minute violent work of inspired satire. You’ll probably need to watch it a few times to catch what you missed in the first viewing. There’s a shitload of small details that will reward you upon a second viewing.

There’s a bit of cussing in here as well just in case you have the volume up in a public setting.

This is How You Make a Comic Book Trailer

Sometimes something so awesome comes along that it makes me glad that I got out of bed. We’ve played around with making trailers for our books before but this one made me do a double take.

I caught wind of this video for Traditional Comics over on artist Nathan Fox’s blog. If ever there was a “Grindhouse” take on comic trailers this would be the one. Patrick Hosmer has made a truly awesome advertisement and Ben Marra’s art is pretty rad.

It got the point across and made me laugh my ass off. Have fun with your promotional material and your audience will as well. Glad to see other publishers doing black and white genre work. Consider us fans and kindred spirits.
