Race After 1977
is a high-paced racing experience for iOS platform devices. Set in a post-apocalyptic world of scorching wastelands and nuclear winter, Race After 1977 will provide hours of fun as you race against your opponents, sliding through sand and ice, slamming opponents out of the way, and jumping onto walls to seize the advantage.

Driven by a custom built full-physics 3D engine and adorned by high-end graphics, Race After 1977 delivers a gaming console experience to the world of mobile device racing games.

Quest Visual | Word Lens app



Word Lens can instantly translates printed words from one language to another using the video camera on your iPhone. No network delay, no roaming fees, and no reception problems.

Word Lens is a dictionary -- evolved. It looks up words for you, and shows them in context. You can use Word Lens on your vacations to translate restaurant menus, street signs, and other things that have clearly printed words.

Word Lens has its limits. Sometimes the translation will have mistakes, and may be hard to understand, but it usually gets the point across. If a translation fails, there is a way to manually look up words by typing them in. Word Lens does not read very stylized fonts, handwriting, or cursive. Try it, and tell us what you think!

Google Adwords - Thank You from PostPanic on Vimeo.


AKQA San Francisco asked PostPanic to help create a unique 10th anniversary thank you film to more than 1 million Google AdWords clients worldwide.

Director Mischa Rozema developed AKQA's script to include a fictitious Google research department trying out ambitious experiments to feature each advertiser. A combination of live action and vfx, the footage was filmed by PostPanic in around Google HDQ in California, before being brought back for post in Amsterdam.

Not just clipped on a cheap strap as an afterthought. Scott wanted to create a product that your friends and strangers would stop you and ask "WTF is that??? And where can I get one?!"

TikTok will retail for $34.95 and LunaTik will retail for $69.95. iPod Nano not included. iPod Nano, Apple logo and Apple are registered trademarks of Apple Inc.

Media surfaces: The Journey from Dentsu London on Vimeo.


This two video sketches illustrate some of the ideas and principles behind Dentsu London's communications strategy Making Future Magic.

Getty Images | Watermark



Getty Images decided to select some of the most visited place in Europe and, in fact, mount its watermark in front of the attractions. The aim was to draw the attention of people who do not usually use their services. The idea is simple and brilliant, a metal frame suspended the watermark of Getty Images in the air, while its base said: "All images You Can Imagine".

As its name suggests, the Diablo is bad to the bone. This all-round racing and climbing bike is powerful, muscular, and ready to defy the laws of physics and cause plenty of trouble to the competition. Maybe this crazy Frenchman in a viral is testing it's limits riding it with wheels on fire.

The Rolling Stones | Plundered My Soul

The Rolling Stones "Plundered My Soul" Music Video - Directed by Jonas Odell from FilmTecknarna on Vimeo.


FilmTecknarna director Jonas Odell pulled from Rolling Stones archival footage to create this animated collage music video. The track is taken from the Stones classic album Exile on Main St., which is to be reissued next month, supplemented by ten previously unheard songs. The movement of the camera becomes part of the choreography of the video, as it slows during the quieter parts of the song and picks up speed as the track gathers intensity. As the song builds Jonas plays around within the format of the collage with the various images forming patterns and introducing depth moves to let the camera truck into one image to reveal another set of images at the end.

Commercial for the Skoda Fabia vRS, which mocks the feel-good vibe of the earlier Skoda Cake ad for the brand.
