One of the many roles a director and his DP have to work out when planning a shot is where do they want the audience to be looking? What is the subject?

This guy made a car that runs on air that is built completely by Legos. Big Lego structures have always been cool, but this takes it to a whole new level. Lego's are really like a slower version of 3d printing. It's possible to make anything with them, if you really think about it. It even goes 17 miles an hour.

This is an artist Emily from Austin, Tx. She is so cool! She's been an inspiration of mine for a while. She is crazy talented and does these huge commissioned murals all over the country. She has amazing colors in her pieces and she recently posted this. These magnificent murals all start with cut up paint swatches. This seems like such a cool creative exercise with color that I want to try! So simple!
