Watch Space ID’s x 2

Dvein – Barcelona’s masters of photo-real magic – just released this relaunch clip for Spanish and Portuguese documentary channel Odisea.

“The aim was to take advantage of the semantic richness that ‘documentary’ implies: adventure, experiment, discovery… We tried to link all these with the channel’s logo, inspired in the natural organic world (conches, constellations, whirls) and the great human inventions (propellers, mills) but adding an emotional bond.”

Blacklist’s Pistachios just completed these playful idents for MTV Nordic with a roster of curious imagery including circuit board characters.

When asked why circuit boards, Pistachios’ Måns Swanberg said, “I recently came up with a clever way of drawing circuit boards, so I thought I’d turn them into figures. The world they live in, on the other hand, is entirely non-technological, it’s more like a surreal, quiet Eden.”

Nola Pictures‘ director Juan Delcan says he was ”going for an illustrative style without hard line, based on expressionist paintings like those by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner” in this new :90 for Chilevision, promoting “the channel’s approach of respecting all people, without judgment and reporting clear unbiased truth.” Delcan: “Our previous collaboration with Chilevision created a wonderful trust and confidence so our working dynamic now has a really streamlined production process.”

Designer Patrick Clair and 3D artist Mick Watson: “Recent events have shown that our politicians are entirely obsessed with polling data, so it would make sense that their very own city would actually be built from the stuff.”
