Mandela Poster Project, Superman Vs. Batman and 40 Days of Dating


Hello creatives! It’s been awhile since we did our last roundup of news and interesting creative stories online. This week we will take a look at a dating experiment by two designers, a surprising announcement about the “Man of Steel” sequel and an exhibition dedicated to a great African leader.

 
40 Days of Dating

Designers and good friends Jessica Walsh and Timothy Goodman both with opposite relationship problems found themselves single at the same time. As an experiment, they dated for forty days.


To explore and hopefully overcome their fears, differences and inadequacies, Jessica and Tim  will go through the joy, frustrations, commitment, time and other motions of a relationship for the next 40 days.
Along with the experience is the creative showcase in typography, motion graphics and web development from their creative friends. Follow the daily updates here.

One of them is the announcement made by American film director, Zack Snyder revealing that two of the most popular superheroes of all time, Superman and Batman will pair up in the anticipated sequel of “Man of Steel”. The twist is that the duo will be battling each other instead of joining forces. The movie is scheduled for release in 2015.
