From New York to Istanbul through typography!

This video takes you on a trip from New York to the Bosporus.
See the city of New York and Istanbul constructed through typography.
Made to celebrate the lunch of the Turkish version of the “New York Times“.

Great job!

“This is our one minute advertisement for the launch of Turkish Edition of The New York Times.

We constructed typographic versions of the most recognizable landmarks in Manhattan and Istanbul, and created a compact tour taking the audience from the New York Harbor all the way to the Bosphorus. Actual pages from the first issue of the newspaper were used to create the textures used in the scenes. The financial news page became NYSE and Wall Street, entertainment news turned into Times Square, and so on.

The result is 60 seconds of typographic goodness, mastered in 2K cinema resolution.

The project has been featured in 67th issue of Stash magazine (April 2010). You may see the details here.”

“Ich weiß was, was du nicht weißt! – Critics!?!

Lea has drop some good words over at abgeschirmt. Unfortunately for all the none German speaker you have to use one of the multiple translation services to read it.

Just a quote from her, that sums up how I feel sometimes:

“Ich schreib hier von der typisch deutschen Kritikkultur, die mir schon seit längerem gehörig auf den Sack geht. Kritik ist super! Kritik kann helfen, man lernt dadurch, ganz klar. Alle müssen Kritik toll finden! Aber in Deutschland wird Kritik so oft missbraucht als einfache subtile Form der Angeberei. Man kritisiert nicht, um mit seiner Kritik zu helfen, nein, man schreibt einfach nur absoluten Bullshit, um zu zeigen, dass man selbst nämlich „meinen Cocktail“ geschrieben hätte und ja super geil toll rechtschreiben kann. Die war bestimmt früher Stempelsammlerin in der Grundschule. Oder eines von diesen nervigen Kindern, die bei Referaten die „ähms“ mitgezählt haben, um das Ergebnis später stolz zu präsentieren. „Also, den Inhalt fand ich voll gut, aber leider hat der Fritz 34-mal Füllwörter benutzt.“ Die Leute wollte man früher schon schlagen!”
