Moonrise Kingdom
It’s been far too long since a new Wes Anderson flick graced my life. Far, far too long. May 25th is going to be amazing because I’ll most likely be one of the nerds waiting in line to see Moonrise Kingdom. If you haven’t yet, check out the trailer here! (character posters via indiewire)

A Year in New York
A Year in New York from Andrew Clancy on Vimeo.
Freelance cameraman Andrew Clancy started filming his life in New York City and just kept going. Eventually he stopped, and when he did he sat down and edited this amazing 4-minute short film – A Year in New York.
Living in New York I’d grab my Canon 7D, or S95, and shoot footage of what was going on around me. It seemed like a never ending project and you could stay filming life in New York for a long time.
Eventually I put the camera down and started to edit. Here’s the end result, it’s a bit rough and ready but that’s life in the Big Apple I guess.
Turn up the volume or put your in earphones for the beautiful song We Don’t Eat by Irishman James Vincent McMorrow.

Wild Youth by Daughter
Obsessed with the lyrics of this song, she’s so good.

The Alphabet 2
The Alphabet 2 from n9ve on Vimeo.
The Alphabet 2 is an eye-catching developmental spelling video where each character visually represents the meaning of the word itself. The short plays with techniques and materials, little and big spaces, but always keeps Helvetica’s font proportions in mind. Basically, it’s got it all. (via Colossal)

The Happy Film
The Happy Film Titles from {group theory} on Vimeo.
Stefan Sagmeister is at it again. The Happy Film is a feature-length documentary in which he undergoes a series of self-experiments to test if it’s possible for a person to have an impact on their own happiness. To say I’m interested in the results would be quite the understatement.
