PostPanic

PostPanic is a motion house based in Amsterdam that truly has a unique style. The team does everything from start to finish in-house, including design, directing, animation (2D & 3D) and post-production.

That’s a lot of work for one shop, but after seeing the work, you’ll agree it’s worth keeping the original creative direction intact.

Feature

Noah Kalina

FAIRspot recently approached Noah Kalina with a request to feature his work and to show a different side of him that many of our readers might not be familiar with. Instead of writing an introduction, we have decided to present the work first, and then reveal the artist behind the photographs at the end as an outroduction, if you will.

Scroll down, enjoy the amazing photographs, and if the name Noah Kalina didn't ring a bell upfront, we are sure to have a surprise for you when you reach the bottom of the page.

Noah Kalina is one of the first internet celebrities who made a name for himself on YouTube with his incredibly popular stop motion art piece "Everyday" where he showcased images of himself that he took every day for 6 years.

The everyday video became so popular that even the Simpsons created a parody of it where Homer takes a photo of himself every day for 39 years.

VH1 named Noah #14 on their list of the Top 40 Internet Superstars of all time. The photos below are part of a series they produced where Noah posed with a number of famous people.

His photography has been exhibited internationally at museums including The Musée de l'Elysée in Lausanne, Switzerland (photo below).

What many might not know is that, even though he became known for his YouTube video, Noah is actually a very talented and passionate professional photographer - and just as artistic behind the camera as he was in front of it for Everyday. Since he specializes in portraiture, Noah gets commissioned for fashion and musician photoshoots. He has clicked the camera button for some great musicians such as Air, Jon Spencer and Sigur Ros. He also gets hired on assignment for numerous dining and entertainment related websites in New York City. Check out Interiors, a photo-blog documenting some of Noah's favorite photographs while attempting to photograph every single restaurant in New York City empty.

Noah Kalina is a true artist and great inspiration by all means and we salute him for that.
