Saint Blog

Recently at Saint, there has been a growing movement where people have been creating jokes which would be appreciated by those who use Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash etc.

Although this is more than a little tragic, some other ‘people’ may find these jokes amusing. So, i thought it would be worthwhile putting them on the blog. If i start the ball rolling with some, hopefully the others will chuck some more up. Richard Barrett is the master at this and has asked if he could anonymously post some. So, yes, by all means Rich, please do. Hopefully we can get enough material that it ‘could’ fill an entire stand up routiene – if your audience were ‘niche’ enough.

I warn you in advance, this is some very subtle humour.

You’ve got to love the Monty Python boys, apart from being madder than a box of frogs and funny as hell, they’re also pretty savvy guys.

In a rather amusing video, they’ve announced that pretty much the full library of Monty Python skits will be posted to a dedicated YouTube channel, in high quality video. So you’ll be able to watch Monsieur Creosote eating that last wafer thin mint, or the rapid demise of the killer rabbit via holy handgrenade as many times as you like, gratis.

And by offering such a smorgasbord of free content, the team hope to generate more sales of their DVDs. They, like many other content owners have realised that you can’t beat ‘em, so you might as well join ‘em, taking advantage of free distribution and brand building to generate sales.

Nice bit of work for some nordic healthy food brand. Lovely face capture, definitely check out the ‘create your own dance’ option (that’s Nick’s face in the image).

This is what we’d all be producing if Simon and Dave weren’t here to tell us otherwise!

It’s my inspiration for the new Alfa ads.

User-generated critiques of user-generated stuff – and done with style and flair. And it’s feckin funny too. Best regular posters on YouTube at the mo, IMHO.
