LG - OPTIMUS SMART PHONE
By: Garson Yu. Posted Sep 17, 2010 at 11:52 PM.I was asked by my friend Ahn Sang Soo to create an opening piece for the LG Optimus Launch Conference. I was thinking of visual music when I created this piece. Jason Sikora our sound/picture editor did a great job of placing the sound to accentuate each drop of punctuation. The Animation was done by Java Scripter Josh Nimoy and was choreographed by Etsuko Uji . Enjoy.
LIGHT
By: Garson Yu. Posted Aug 25, 2010 at 6:48 PM.Life has a beginning and an ending.
But in our lifetime,
there exists a continuum,
a time full of curiosity and constant surprise,
observation and discovery.
When I look at Degas’ sculptures,
I am always fascinated by how I am able to see something new each time.
My perception changes at each angle and as I walk around the sculpture,
the figures give new meaning.
Figures in motion.
De Kooning defined painting as drawing,
and from his and Degas’ work,
I became curious as to how sculpture could be defined as drawing
and play with our perceptions of sculpture.

Brad and Angie move over! Dora the Explorer has become such a worldwide celebrity that her series is now broadcast in more than 100 countries and has been dubbed in 30 languages. Not only is she beating out all of her animated competitors, her global celebrity status has earned her a place in the Macy's Thanskgiving Day parade with her own balloon! To help Nickelodeon celebrate Dora's tenth anniversary, we created a 40-second stop motion animated show open for Nick's TV movie, "Dora's Big Birthday Adventure", which will premiere on Sunday night, 8/15.

Posted Aug 2, 2010 at 10:39 PM.This morning Robert Appleton, a friend from AGI, sent me a message on Facebook "Hey ...we need to talk about visual music ;)" which reminded me to put this QT up for all my colleagues who are interested in John Whitney's work. He was an exceptional motion graphics artist in the 60's who did work for Saul Bass's Vertigo title sequence.
