Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

I finally got around to see­ing Slumdog Millionaire the other night (which was com­pletely amaz­ing by the way, best movie I’ve seen in a long time). And nor­mally I get extremely irri­tated by the fact that I’m not forced to sit through com­mer­cials before the movie starts. But instead I was pleas­antly sur­prised by this whim­si­cal com­mer­cial for Office Max, cre­ated by The Escape Pod. It was fun see­ing all the intri­cate details on the big screen.

(This is com­pletely ran­dom, but the very begin­ning scene — where she is pick­ing the rub­ber band balls from the trees — reminded me of Return to Oz when Dorothy picks lunch­pails from the trees. Anyone?)
