While most movie marketing is done with posters/billboard, tv, radio and internet ads, there are some films that are going above and beyond the traditional world of film advertising. Where the Wild Things Are is Spike Jonze’s highly anticipated film, the posters have been teasing for a while, but the big attraction, in Los Angeles at least is the Where the Wild Things Are pop up shop located at Space 15 Twenty. The store is decorated like the forest from the movie and is selling various memorabilia. The shop is located at 1520 N. Cahuenga Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028. I’ll definitely be checking it out before it closes on October 18th. View more pictures at Kitsune Nior.

St Mary Woolnoth- Rich Pickings
A series of 3D images produced by Squint/Opera studio are on display as part of the London Architectural Festival. The images are set roughly in the year 2090 and depict people adapting to their lives in the then flooded city. The images are quite interesting (and frightening), be sure to check out their blog to see how they made them.

In total, ten pieces of art were sold, five to the Consul-General of France.

Duke University Library has a wonderful online gallery available called Ad*Access. The gallery features hundreds of high quality scans of vintage ads, from beauty products to transportation, the gallery is worth your time. It’s amazing to see how much things have changed, not only with the products the adverts endorse, but the design of the ad itself.
