If Pixar can almost loose Toy Story 2 accidentally, you too can loose your files. So backup now, review your back up plans and backup often.

Parallel Lines Goes Live

 

Parallel Lines, the collaboration between Philips and RSA is now online at http://www.cinema.philips.com/. Equal parts advertising, storytelling and filmmaking, it features 5 short films sharing the same dialogue but telling five very different stories. My favorite is The Gift by Carl Erik Rinsch, with its gorgeous visual juxtapositions and sci-fi motifs.

Life in HD

Nature wastes no steps, wastes no resources. Nature adapts, improvises and finds the elegant solution. About a decade ago the BBC and Discovery Channel assembled a production team to document the hidden secrets of nature using the best of human ingenuity and the best technology available. After five years of grueling work the result was the eleven-part series Planet Earth, a must see for anyone working in a creative field.

Must see, not just for what it showed but how it was achieved. A filmmaker spent two weeks in the wilderness quietly waiting to capture this:



The same team is now back with Life, a ten-part series that explores the challenges of life on planet Earth. Life premieres (in the U.S.) on the Discovery Channel, Sunday, March 21, 8pm. Check your local listings and try to catch the series. It will surely inspire.



It is easy to think that we humans rule the animal kingdom. But take a look at these videos and see how animals survive with extraordinary imagination and “bizarre innovations.”
