I’m In The Mood for Love……

2008 July 30

Loving new websites, that is!  So folks, I’ve been on an emotional hiatus from blogging. Lots of stuff going on here, but I’m coming out of it today just in time to be greeted by this wonderful website call Moodstream by GettyImages.  WOW!

Awesome: GettyImages MoodStream

For creative types, there is nothing more terrifying than a blank screen. If this happens to you (I know I suffer from this brain-drain syndrome periodically) then check out a powerful brainstorming tool called Moodstream from Getty Images.

Images, video footage and audio are available to provide inspiration for your creative. Users simply fine-tune their mood setting (happy or sad, calm or lively, nostalgic or contemporary) and choose a few preset indicators (intensify, stabilize, excite, inspire, etc.) which reflect their current mood and Getty pulls images, video and audio will detailed information making it available for purchase.

An excellent idea all around – the presentation of content and a stellar user interface is going to make MoodStream a phenomenal add-on service for Getty.

 I personally fell in love with Refresh. You can also adjust the audio for more or less music with words or not. So the visual and audio settings are completely within your control.  If you’re looking for inspiration or just some really juicy mind-candy, this is the sight to meet your needs.   Enoy!

    This is such a cool site – i wasn’t sure what my mood was when i started dialing in different combinations. Then I went to the pre-set wheel and kept clicking until i found a pic that caught my attention. The mood was intensity. The music and pictures started immediately resonating with me. I guess I’m in an intense mood. And I actually thought I was in a rather mellow mood. I couldn’t identify any extremes at all. Interesting!
