MaleCopywriter.com - I laughed, cringed, and then went back for more. One of the best, if not the best portfolio website I've ever seen. May be NSFW depending on where you work. Some language and a scantily clad male copywriter.

The Making of "The Leafcutter"
Art & Graft just published new work that's described as "an inspirational tale of a little guy on a big adventure." The piece, commissioned by McGarrah Jessee, is for Costa Del Mar sunglasses. It's a compelling story with beautiful visuals, but that's not why I'm sharing.
One of my favorite things is to find "the making of" pieces that go with the finished piece. This is one of those times that a studio took time to create a behind-the-scenes look of what it took to make the final piece. So, watch the story and then enjoy a look behind the curtain of the animation process.
