TGR just dropped their new trailer for One For the Road. I spy Phantom slow-mos, cable cams, Brain Farm-ish heli scenics, lots of time lapses on motion rigs, and a new crop of riders – Tom Wallnuts, anyone…? Will the movie actually live up to the trailer?

Little People :: Slinkachu
And now, a post embracing my obsession with miniature things – there are a few people out there shooting tiny plastic people posed in street scenes, or on food (see Christoper Boffoli), but my favorite is definitely London-based artist Slinkachu, who’s been shooting The Little People Project since 2006. It’s a mix of street art, performance art, and photography and he’s presenting the full package – the tiny figures are posed on real streets with real objects, and the photo sequences zoom way out so you get to see the installations in various scales and contexts, each one very different than the previous. They’re funny, smart, and subtle, especially considering their size. Anyway, here are a few images:

There are tons more at The Little People blog, it’s awesome and I highly recommend checking it out. Here’s an interview on The Economist blog More Intelligent Life. Also – books for sale on Amazon. Check out Inner City Snail, it’s pretty sweet too.

Thanks to Tony Birkholtz of Another Being Creative for the tip-off. I think these contrast nicely with the previous post…
