Trial by timeline

Overall, you're a pretty obedient, law-abiding citizen… right? Well, maybe you live. But the things you do in your day to day life could be crimes in other countries. For instance, just having a Facebook account warrants torture and imprisonment in Myanmar. So what would you be guilty of around the world? Amnesty International's new tool, 'Trial by Timeline', calculates just that – and you only have to push a button to find out.

Putting the fire back in newspaper ads

It takes a different type of thinking to stand out from the crowd in newspaper advertising. When the much anticipated season 3 premiere of Game of Thrones was promoted in the New York Times, readers really got the feeling that the show was close to airing. So close, in fact, that they'd be forgiven for looking to the skies in search of a dragon from the series.

Serenading with a saw – easy as

How will you show your affection this Valentine's Day? Getting in touch with your softer side is easier for some than it is for others. Mitre 10's DIY tutorial series, Easy As, is here to help. They posted this sweet video for a DIY Valentine's gift like no other… see below.

Daily dismemberment

To mark the television series The Walking Dead coming back on air for their third season, something gruesome has been set up in Toronto's Union Station. The zombie hands installment is counting down for ten days, and as each day passes, one finger drops to the station floor. This creepy countdown continues until the series finally returns to air. Pretty gross, but pretty fun. Plus they managed to add a social media layer to the ambient campaign too!

The quest for the perfect shot

Going the extra distance for the perfect photo – we've all got our limits. But for those of us that are avid photographers, those limits seem to be non-existent… a phenomenon captured beautifully (and hilariously) in this new clip for the Canon EOS Rebel T4i. The director of the famous Sony Bravia 'Balls' ad, Nicolai Fugslig, was in on the action to create this spot. Check it out below!

Dim poster with a smart idea

An Amsterdam-based restaurant, CTaste, gives their patrons a chance to dine in the dark, allowing them to experience a "journey of taste, sound and touch". The restaurant aims to serve food bursting with flavour, enhancing the taste experience even more by taking away the ability to see their meal. Even the waiters that serve you are blind/visually impaired, so you well and truly get a feel for their world by the end of the night.

Cheers to another mint summer

You can't beat a Kiwi summer. We wanted to give a little something special to our clients and friends this Christmas – a gift that encapsulated the good feelings associated with the New Zealand holiday season.

Our Christmas gift arrived on the recipient's desks as a folded shirt displaying the words 'it's time to loosen the tie… another sweet as summer is about to unfold'. The shirt then opened out to become a typographic tea towel designed lovingly by us. Choice!

The Green Room Verdict: We hope our gift gets you into the spirit of summer – Merry Christmas from everyone at Tenfold Creative!
