Did anyone watch the Oscars?


Another year another Oscar award ceremony,

Surprised to have seen The Curious Case of Benjamin Button win a couple of awards. Highlights of this year's Oscar awards featured the technological achievements that went into creating this year's nominees. Nominees such as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and The Dark Knight saw some of the greatest achievements using makeup to creating the dark and threatening environments that made up The Dark Knight. The field of design would feature such technological environments that would make all these things possible. The technology that continues to come out makes these movies something to behold. New movies such as 300 to Watchman would see some of the greatest looking environments. What do you think makes these things possible? It is the power and the thinking ability of all these talented graphic designers that put their mind to work to make these movies possible. You walk down the street and just marvel at the poster deigns that promote these visionary movies. Graphic design is all about crossing the lines and wowing the audience with design works that are their to inspire and captivate us. The Oscar's isn't just an award show but is a time in design to celebrate the technological achievements that make these visionary movies possible. I as a growing graphic designer continue to be inspired by these movies. I believe 2009 will welcome visionary movies that cross boundaries. 2009 is an era of digital and 3-D creation. From documentaries to action to romantic movies, 2009 will be a year of continued technological innovation. Watching this year's Oscar's reminded me of all these things. Until next year!. Congratulations to all the winners!!!
