Rethink Scholarship

This is a really cool video from Rethink Communications promoting their grant.
I agree with the message, in most scenarios it's important to think about ideas AND execution at the same time, especially when working with tight deadlines and budgets.
But, get a strong idea going first as a "blue-print" of your message, don't just start wasting your time executing the first concept that pops into your head.

Check it out!

This may be a few days late but as I've already revealed my "best movie of 2009" I thought I should say the best graphic novel of 2009 has to be......

Darwyn Cooke's adaptation of Richard Stark's, "Parker; the Hunter"

Wow, was this book great. The story was that of a man set on revenge, Parker, the anti-hero but what really sets this book apart is the amazing art and storytelling by Cooke. Even if you are illiterate I suggest you get this book just to look at the images - it's well worth it.
