I love creativity in any form. It amazes me the things that people can come up with. I think it’s because I’m so resolutely left-brained and have never had that artistic gene in me.
The latest thing I’ve been blown away by is this video by OK Go. I’m sure many of you have already seen it, since it is fairly old by now, but I love the thought they put into their videos. Especially these days, when videos don’t air anymore and most are just people dancing.
OK Go has a good track record for their videos. They’re always visually interesting and have unique ideas. I’m sure you’re all familiar with their treadmill song.
This is the latest one they’ve released, with some amazing camera work.
Major props to people who have creative minds. It gives the rest of us something to look at.

Cool videos. My sister is in graphic design and she does something like that in the last video. I think she says its called stop motion. Another thing too, if you have seen the Target advertisements, those are pretty artsy too.
