Failure. The mere thought can paralyze even the most heroic thinkers and keep great ideas off the drawing board. But is failing really that bad? We often go by the saying that “in order to appreciate success, you must have at least failed once”. This can be applied to many situations in life and as long as you don’t give up and learn the positive from it, then the stars are your limit. We found a very inspirational video from the engineers, racers and designers at Honda. We get an inside look at the mishaps of Honda racers, designers and engineers to learn how they draw upon failure to motivate them to succeed. From poor color choices to blown race engines, these risk-taking individuals provide an honest look at what most people fear most. Watch the film and discover the upside of failure.

We’ve interviewed Patrick Brown, a young Australian graphic designer & artist. He has a very distinct and visually unique style. He is mostly known for all his fan art ranging from video games (featured in GamesMaster Magazine UK November, 10, 2009 Issue), tv shows to movies. I’ve been a fan of his work for quite some time so I was quite honored to be able to get some insight on him and some of his processes.

So, I am not the only one who didn’t like Avatar. But damn it, peer pressure almost made me crumble. My sister especially, claiming that I just didn’t “get it”, that part of the brilliance was the fact that the planet was called Pandora – a reference to Greek mythology… She didn’t put it quite so succinctly, but I got her point. I didn’t have a ready retort for her however because, well it would have been the same answer as what I gave five minutes before, right after the movie finished – “It’s not new, it’s not different, it’s been done before”. Though I couldn’t think of any examples there and then. Also, I think as a self-professed movie buff & Empire worshipper, she’s biased, and therefore easily pleased. Me, I’m a difficult sumbitch, and as it would seem, I don’t react well to what I’ve now termed ‘Overhype’.
