Hey kids, just a short one this time around. New trend of the day: ads created by users, an agency's worst nightmare. Read more about it right here. The example they use is Tyson Ibele's Sony ad, a gem as they say. It's been around for a while and has been picked up now that it won a contest. You can read more behind the scenes goodies here. (you might wanna register first) Tyson is only 19 years old and we've always been impressed by the things he posted on the CG-society fora. Be sure to click his name and roam around his site cuz it's filled with crazy delicious quicktimes and jpg's, the kind we swallow without chomping and afterwards lick our fingers like a stripper would. Also, he has been so kind as to write down some tutorials, a geek-read for some, a must read for geeks. Despite his young age he's already working as a vfx-artist at MAKE studio, the one that brought us that Nike Robots ad a while back. That'll be all for now, take care, Dolores, Daily ps: a little something for on the road: Spike Jonz' New Miller audition ads.
