New Orleans After the Deluge

Smith Magazine is currently running a rather impressive webcomic by Josh Neufeld called A.D.: New Orleans After the Deluge. It deals with the events in New Orleans and Biloxi when hurricane Katrina struck. I am particularly impressed by the way the story’s told from the point of view of the people who are hit the worst. Can’t wait to see this in a book form.

Gnist Energy Drink

This frame is from an advertising clip for Gist Energy Drink (watch it at Ads of the World). I like the double meaning and the rather cynical undertone in this segment. As his wife enters the room with a very unhealthy meal, this husband answers he loves her, but he uses his heart, which I think would rather have a different diet.

The animation in this clip is very good as well (by Paradox / Tilnaermet Lik from Norway).
