undiscovered

saw Jenny's new movie last night. was fantastic. it was kinda like hanging out with her. there were many batting cage scenes where she got her aggression out an whatnot - i'm going to the batting cage now. it really just looked like fun. and it's only a dollar for 16 balls. stoked. i think lisa's coming.

hp tv spot.

love the current HP Mobile Technolgy commercials. they employ a cute little camera trick when the actor holds a white picture border/frame in front of an area of the screen and there is motion all around, but the framed area freezes and becomes a still photograph. now this is great -- i think they or kodak were doing it to advertise didgtial cameras and printers earlier this year -- but hp's new branding and identity devices are fantastic. the colors relay the printing and the delivery - the lines and plus signs are standouts because they are modern but sortof 80's also. there was some very lubalin-esque headline type used - same rainbow / primary printing colors palatte on a field of black, set at a diagonal. it was very unboring for HP. I think HP has always had it together, they set some styles and standards that became popularized, and now they are changing it up again, and its looking good. very good.
