E-motives in Brussels

Daniel has been invited to speak at “E-Motives” in Bruxelles in spring 2007. It seemed like a really great conference, hosted by the Sint Lukas Academy for Visual Arts, and we are proud to be a part of this years line-up, featuring the fantastic design collective Pleix and the renowned Base Design to name a few. In the invitation they wrote:

“E-Motives” – in all their possible interpretations – will be an attempt to capture the realm of the emotional, the e-world and the dimensions of movement ?á?í?è both physical and spiritual.

We are still a bit freaked out by that description, but it sounds really great, doesn’t it!? We just can’t wait.

Daniel spoke about “Play” at TYPO Berlin in May 2006 and will also be speaking at HK Grafisk in Aarhus in January.

24 seconds of fame

We have heard that, at the end of Markus Schmidt’s relentless coverage of danish tv-promotion at the Danish TV festival, words like: “This is how it should be done” and “I´m speechless” was said just before he showed our trailer for the 5th season of 24… Well – So are we! And we can still feel the warmth inside. Fantastic.
Markus Schmidt is the founder of United Senses.

What’s On?

Autumn is coming and what is more timely than fading leaves and natures own colours: Peach is the new pink(!) and… well, maybe not – But we think it’s kind of fresh in a autumn-kind-of-way.[kml_flashembed movie="http://stupid-studio.com/flashcontent/gallery/060801/gallery.swf" height="260" width="420" base="http://stupid-studio.com/flashcontent/gallery/060801/" /]

24 campaign

Running on it´s 5th season Lars was asked to create the promotion campaign for this new classic. Since it had been moved to a late night slot, combined with the fact that it was the fith season running, the campaign really had to stand out. Luckily one of Denmarks greatest freestyle rappers, Per Vers, was talked into helping us out, and along with the editorial staff at TV 2 this campaign was created.
Great working with Per Vers and his funky staff.

Visuals at Roskilde Festival

This is slowly becoming tradition, since this is the fourth year in a row, where we are participating in doing the visuals at the Roskilde Festival electronica stage.

FIFA World Cup

Together with TV 2 Design we created this years campaign for the FIFA World Cup. Lars directed the photoshoots and did all the editing of the campaign. Since Denmark didn’t qualify for the cup, the campaign obviously needed a different approach… (Continue reading…) [kml_flashembed movie="http://stupid-studio.com/flashcontent/stupid_flv.swf" height="315" width="420" fvars=" moviename = VM06-Italy ; moviepath = http://stupid-studio.com/flashcontent/video/ ; stupidred = 167 ; stupidgreen = 194 ; stupidblue = 85 ; stupidalpha = 100" /]

We love TYPO Berlin

Presenting at TYPO Berlin

Daniel will be speaking at the upcoming TYPO Berlin on the subject of “Play”. He will try to offer a solution to the challenges that face the designer working in the current mass media industry.

The presentation will be named “Play Our Way” and will present loads of examples from the TV 2 Design portfolio and Daniel will offer his own experiences on what it takes to be a part of a creative team in the mass media industry – this will of course be completely objective and unbiased…

It’s at 16.00, friday the 18th of May 2006 in “Haus der Kulturen der Welt” in Berlin.
