ADCD’s Annual Show

You concepted for hours, sketched it out hundreds of times, presented to your entire office and pitched to the client. Then, you gritted your teeth – and repeated the process. Finally, your creation was approved and produced. Now, it’s time to show off your portfolio-making, swagger-entitling, competition-infuriating, next-level work. Call for entries for Annual Show is still going on now. Find out more info at: http://www.adcdawardshow.com/. Deadline is July 7, 2013.

Oh, and while you are there check out the amazing collection of Promo videos like the one from Ryan Bramwell of Spillt featured above!

Paper Fashion Show – XL Edge Video

Every year I'm involved with ADCD's Paper Fashion Show I'm always so impressed with the countless hours and creativity that each team put into creating their fashions for the show.

Several teams have put together behind the scenes looks into the making of their fashions. Here's a link to a video 5280 created about Barry Brown's winning design "Gloria Deo"  Barry Brown - Gloria Deo. Barry worked solo for over 300 hours to complete it and nearly 20,000 dots of paper were used to create this fabric-like, flowing quality.

One of the fashions that really caught my eye this year was XL-Edge's fashion titled "Moji Toki" (mo-he-toe-key). Friends of Mine created a really nice video (featured above) that shows some of the work that went into creating the fashion. However, the best part of the video is that it shows the fashion in action on the runway...something I missed from backstage. The transformative and moveable elements really made the fashion come alive on stage. Definitely one of my favorite fashions from this year's show!
