Dove posted on Monday a three-minute ad on YouTube that teaches a vital lesson about how we view ourselves compared to how others see us. Trust us, it's worth your time. A former forensic artist for the San Jose police department met a series of women and asked each to describe the way they look. He had no way of seeing them behind a curtain. He prompted them to detail everything: hair length, facial structure, their most prominent features. He then sketched each participant from their self-description. Each woman was asked before the study to get to know one of the other participants. The forensic artist then prompted each woman to describe the other's face. SEE ALSO: Dove's 'Beautify' Photoshop Action Un-Airbrushes Images of Models At the end of the video, the artist reveals two sketches — one from the participant itself, one from their partner. The differences are remarkable. We won't ruin the effect for you, but we'll leave you with this comment from Dove posted … [Read more...] about Dove Experiment Aims to Change the Way You See Yourself

This Pharrell mashup will keep you up all night to get happy. This video is equally as impressive as the music: Pop cover masters Pomplamoose created a catchy mashup of "Happy" by Pharrell Williams, blended with Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" and "Lose Yourself to Dance." Williams performs vocals on all three of the original tracks, making this mashup Pharrell-tastic. See also: Childhood Flashbacks Abound in Video Game Theme Song Mashup The video was created using a one-shot technique and, as the name suggests, the action is recorded on a single camera.
