Birdseye have a series of new ads featuring one of the worst looking polar bears (one of our pet hates!!!). Where is his long nose – look more like a white teddy! (Breathe, Breathe). Anyway, enjoy these ads!
Here is a very cool video featuring the artist that made the Lego Polar Bear – Sean Kenney. It’s from a television show called “New York Wave” and mostly is in Japanese but has English sub-titles. The feature about building the polar bear starts about half way through this twenty minute clip.
Renowned Lego artist, Sean Kenney http://www.seankenney.com/ will unveil his three month project at the Philapdelphia Zoo from April 10 to October 31, a polar bear sculpture made from 95 000 Lego Pieces. It is part of the “Creatures of Habitat” exhibition at the Zoo, a novel way to promote conservation of numerous animal species and their habitats.
