Favorite Things (April 2 ed.)

OK. Here’s what’s cool in my world this week…
- Mars Hill Church web site
Beautiful design. Excellent platform for communication. I don’t think I’ve seen any better example of integrating various media. Also check out the Resurgence. - New album on the way from the Chariot
I confess I am tantalized by this video trailer from “Wars and Rumors of Wars”. A stroke of marketing genius: pre-order the album and get a free bottle of hot sauce. - Monsters vs. Aliens
Anxious to see this movie. The trailer looks hilarious. - Disneyland
Just returned from another visit to the happiest place on earth. Learned a lot about staging, drama, lighting and storytelling – all important design considerations. Also having much respect for Walt Disney, the consummate Creative Director. The man had an uncanny imagination and the ability to simply know what would make something better creatively. - Axe Men
Maybe I love this show partly because logging runs deep in my family. I’m also really stoked on the intro graphics. Really tasty 2D animation with lots of drama.
