Royal Elastics + Nanospore = FRESHTECH

September 15,2008 13:32:25

http://nanospore.org/ns04/blogimages/blogbreak04.jpg


alas! we've completed our :30 animated spot for Royal Elastic's newest seasonal campaign, FRESHTECH. the shoe featured here is the Knight, as they've got the whole middle age theme on the shoe names going on. 


FRESHTECH is the New Bermuda Triangle Vortex. And NATURE and TECHNOLOGY are its missing travelers. It's shrouded in mystery, and one rarely knows what's going on. In those instances that you do, we give u a glimpse of the sexual [yes, it's somewhat sexual but sfw] synergy that happens within.


Sean Starkweather contributed to a portion of design and practically animated the entire thing on his own. check his site.


and we popped Nosaj Thing's sound design cherry. sounds sick. nosajthing.com


 


now, this mov is pretty highres cuz we like it that way. but if for some reason it just won't load for you,


WATCH IT ON VIMEO





direction: Nanospore

design: Paul Hwang, Ben Lee, Sean Starkweather

animation: Sean Starkweather

animation support: Chad Howitt, Paul Hwang

sound: Nosaj Thing

HOMOGENY, a collaboration with ROYAL ELASTICS

August 21,2008 20:43:01

 


HOMOGENY is collaboration between Nanospore and Royal Elastics - set for a Fall '08 release. it features our little nameless friend, which serves as a symbol of the similarity in structure between organs or parts, possibly of dissimilar function, that are related by common descent. Light and dark. Color and monochrome. Land and sea. Love and hatred. Joy and pain.


it is also a hidden metephor for the unusual harmony between Royal Elastics and Nanospore.

one of the 2 designs will come randomly in a custom Royal Elastics blisterpack that will additionally include a pair of the Nanpospore Sosei shoes, t-shirt, extra large handkerchief, stickers and god knows what else.

we'll also have a few of the toys available [minus the blisterpack] on the webstore. they'll be sold as a pair, because the fun factor about these is that u get to jigsaw them together with a loving embrace and create a completely new silhouette.

giant memory foam Nanospore plush prototypes

August 21,2008 18:27:15

these are some prototype plush Nanos that our intern jessica helped sew together. these 30 inch tall monsters are made with couture fabrics and a shitload of memory foam chunks. the luxuriosity of it all.



MUSIC IS A TIME MACHINE, Nanospore's Fuse Ident

June 26,2008 16:53:24


hi all, we just press released our Fuse TV's idents, which got featured on Motionographer, Top Spot feature on Boards and a feature on Stash's Feed as well. and, although the original music track  we intended to use was Kanye's Classic, featuring Rakim, Nas and KRS-One [there was a slew of licensing issues that prevented it], he still managed to blog about it last month - Kanye's Blog.


we were fine with all that though, when Rahzel jumped on board to make the current beatboxed track from scratch. you'll notice the bpm's to Classic and our "Back in the Day" track are identical. btw, Rahzel doesn't talk like a walking vocoder on conference calls. what a disappointment.
