Buster Design Creates Show Open for DJ AM's MTV Series, "Gone Too Far"

DMN Newswire--2009-10-27--MTV's "Gone Too Far" documentary series features the late Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM, counseling other addicts in recovery, as he, himself, had dealt with his own addiction problems. "I got so lost in my disease, I was gone," he once said.

Buster Design's show open for this new TV series (produced on behalf of clients Gigantic! Productions and MTV), physically manifests that loss of control - showing individuals under the grip of something much larger and more sinister than they can handle. Footage of DJ AM and young addicts are intertwined in plumes of smoke and dripping lines of tar - all rendered in a haze of addiction. Sometimes the vein-like "drug lines" hold the addicts in their grip like puppet strings, as they use and abuse drugs, and fall into oblivion.

The project was created by Buster Design, under the supervision of Buster's executive producer/executive creator director Jonas Morganstein. Sadly, Adam passed away the day Buster delivered the final show graphics.

Content Insider #148 - The iGen

NO...Doesn't have a thing to do with "that" smartphone...or "that" store...or "that" tablet. It's the next generation. Kids and we mean little kids. That's what today's products are being designed for/targeted at. You happen to buy one...fine. Watch a little, little kid pick up a smartphone. He/she just uses it. They've come pre-wired and we're still trying to figure out how to IM. It's the IGen. They want it instantly. They want to use it instantly. They expect their photos, their video, their music, their stuff immediately when/where/how they want it. Read More

Insider #149 - Game Demographics

The blood, gore, adrenalin challenges that were unveiled at E3 and enjoyed at ComicCon are fun to look at, easy to hold but are they really the games people want to plunk down their credit cards to own or rent time with? Seems as though the investors, the players who control the controllers have a different idea of a "good" game than the kids who develop them. While mobs of people play educational, informational, stimulating games our kid huddles in his room and mumbles "The Few, The Proud, The Gamers." Read More
