Safety video of the day. Delta's 80's In-Flight Safety Video

more info at brandchannel.com. Watch also Virgin America Safety Video

"As a tribute to Delta's first safety video premiering in the 80's, our latest version is 80's themed to continue our emphasis on safety in an engaging way.
The safety video was filmed over 20 hours on a Delta 777 in Detroit. More than 100 people including 20 actors, 80 extras, six flight attendants and a pilot are featured in the video dressed in 80's fashions including authentic Delta flight attendant uniforms, leg warmers, hair scrunchies and neon colors. There are also cameos from some of our favorite 80's stars including basketball player Kareem Abdul Jabbar, who had a cameo in the movie "Airplane", as a Delta first officer. We also have our favorite '80s alien, Alf, and even an original member of Devo, Gerald Casale, safely storing the popular energy dome. 

We introduced safety videos designed to be constantly updated with fresh scenes to reward even the most frequent of frequent flyers for paying attention. Watch the full video here and be sure to let us know what you think!"

From Luke White: "My latest global campaign for Russian Standard Vodka, the world’s number one premium Russian vodka, features the Emmy Award-nominated U.S. filmmaker, futurist and performance philosopher Jason Silva. The campaign explores the incredible convergence of science and nature, craft and technology, history and revolution that make Russian Standard so ultra pure and delicious. I co-created the online, TV and cinema spots with Jason Silva, production company Great Guns and post-production company Mainframe. The films utilised the talents of directors Calum MacDiarmid, Jean Poisson and acclaimed US director Ron Fricke, best known for the ground-breaking documentary films Baraka and Samsara."

Main Title Sequence of the day. Imaginary Forces - Black Sails

more info here
Imaginary Forces - Black Sails from Imaginary Forces on Vimeo.

It's 1715 and the golden age of piracy… a world where rebel pirates, collapsing shanty towns, whore houses, illegal treasure and the promise of the New World clash with the imperial forces of European civilization. Nothing less than a full-on art history mash-up of Baroque motifs, Gothic architecture and Rococo style could express this strange society, where outcasts and aristocrats alike vie for power. Using a sculptural language traditionally reserved for saints and kings, we depict a maverick society that is ultimately doomed. Beauty and death abound… as well as a skeleton or two…

Tune in to Starz on January 25th for the premiere of Black Sails.
