田馥甄 [My Love]大揭開

田馥甄 [My Love]專輯實圖, 包裝非常精緻


專輯包裝形式像一本Zine(獨立誌),由三份不同用紙的線裝小冊與CD紙卡套裝幀在一起組成


側邊特殊的手工刮膠,「全冊」可180度攤展開來。


冊跟冊之間的連接與過場;不同紙質在各自時間點依序出現的設計,讓整張專輯翻閱起來更具層次感。



從意像到想像: 專輯裡尤其精彩的是意象的詩意化,例如在封面小冊的黑白攝影

裡,取用蝙蝠在洞穴裡飛覓的攝影,對照 「Love is reaching, reaching love」這句文

字,以視盲、聲音、方向感跟 reaching 該字做連結 。或可見另一黑白頁裡,用一

張等待雨水將至的大片泥地照片,對應「Love is wanting to be loved」 該句文字。

即便是流行音樂的視覺方向,它也能是聰明的、無需流俗的。

特別訂製高透明與厚度的日規進口PP袋,每個袋子上方都有一道手工的車線,這樣的設計是希望連收納袋的細節,都要有特別專屬的感覺。



每一份專輯的側邊,都請師傅以手工厚刷膠再刮膠的方式一冊冊地裝幀,讓每張專輯看起來都帶有一種「裸」與「反璞」的人文手製感,每一份都是意外與自然手感的唯一。師傅如果刮膠刮的太完美,反而還會被設計師要求重新再來一次。



時間軸線的鋪陳:為了讓專輯的美術與企劃上有更完整的說話脈絡。一開始的封面

小冊以黑白攝影對應 John Lennon 「Love」的詞句先進入前導、再漸進入田馥甄

一個人置身在工業與荒蕪感極重的環境意象裡、最後才以如詩作般的歌詞作底,讓

「看」專輯這件事是有層次並且享受的。

Holiday Movie, The Smurfs!



Hello guys, it has been sometime i havent update my blog due to busy school life, haha

Lalalalalala~ sing a happy song, lalalalalala smurfy all day long~ is this song sounds familiar to you?

Today i would like to introduce a cute and nice show which i had watch it during my holiday, The Smurfs. For the 80s and 90s, i think most of us know the smurfs, the blue little man, and also one of our cartoon that we watch in our childhood, now the cartoon is made into a movie! Basically, this movie is The Smurfs get ready for the Blue Moon Festival. In his home, Papa Smurf sees a vision of the Smurfs in cages, Clumsy Smurf holding a dragon wand, and Gargamel being powerful. He decides to suspend Clumsy from picking Smurf Roots, but Clumsy secretly does so anyway. However, Gargamel sees him and follows him into the village. The Smurfs all flee, and Clumsy runs into a forbidden cave. Papa, Smurfette, Grouchy, Brainy and Gutsy notice this and hurry after him. They find him at the edge of a cliff, and while trying to help him up, they are sucked into a gigantic vortex, leading to New York. Patrick and Grace, a married and expectant couple, befriend them and allow them to stay in their apartment.

Papa learns that he will be able to get them all home in a couple nights. But first, he must figure out the spell to do so. Patrick tells them that there is an old book store in the city, and they head there to get a spell book. After lots of searching, they find one of their own comic books, containing the spell. Gargamel hears where they are, so he sneaks into the book store and finds a dragon wand, which he then steals. He uses the dragon wand to abduct Papa. The Smurfs promise Papa that they won't try to save him. However, Clumsy stayed behind, so he plans a rescue, along with Patrick. The other Smurfs agree to help. Meanwhile, Gargamel is going to remove the "Smurf essence" from Papa and charge it into the dragon wand, which would make him more powerful than anything else in the world.

Patrick and the Smurfs battle Gargamel while Smurfette saves Papa. Also, Brainy reads the spell and opens up the portal, allowing him to go home and round up his friends. They, too, join the fight. Gargamel captures Papa again and throws him into the air, but Patrick catches him. Right before Gargamel can destroy them both, Gutsy knocks the dragon wand out of his hand. Clumsy tries to catch it, and Papa believes that he will fail, but, much to Papa's surprise, he manages to catch it. Without his dragon wand, Gargamel is powerless, and Papa destroys the wand once and for all, and the Smurfs return home. Patrick and Grace have a baby boy, whom they name Blue, and the Smurfs rebuild their houses to look like what humans have.

So, what are you waiting for~~~ get your ass to the cinema and enjoy the show! I personally love it very much because it actually reminds me of my youth and childhood, at the same time bring back all the joy and fun

Oh my smurf! This movie is simple nice, and we learnt a new word from this movie too, which is "smurf" instead of saying oh my god, we said oh my smurf, what the hell become what the smurf, damn hot become smurfy hot, it is more cute and polite isnt it? haha, if you are still saying oh my god and so on, you are not fashion. hahahahahaha
