WatchFinding Portland
Presented last weekend at TEDx Portland, this time-lapse video filmed in Portland, OR and the Columbia Gorge offers a new perspective to the City of Roses.
This is a truly unique piece that stands above the plethora of time-lapse videos being produced every day. The imagery is absolutely beautiful, and so well-crafted. The aerial shots are out of this world.

McDonalds Reflective Billboard
Taken from Complex:
“To promote a local 24-hour McDonald’s in Canada, creative agency Cossette Vancouver designed this reflective billboard that’s only visible at night when cars pass by.
