Traffic in Frenetic HCMC, Vietnam from Rob Whitworth on Vimeo.


My wife and I fell in love with Vietnam when we were there. One of my favourite experiences was the traffic which oddly enough made more sense the more directly you were involved with it…

Don't Do Art!

This is a very clever parody of an anti-drug campaign for the College for Creative Studies in Detroit by Team Detroit… Although the last is kind of nonsensical to the theme, it definitely sums up the awful feelings my wife (also an artist) and I share (despite our repulsion at such sentiments) for our own children- Thankfully they’re coming through with the talent!

DTV: Parks & Recreation



DTV: Parks & Recreation

Originally intended as a spin-off of the U.S. The Office, Parks and Recreation follows the cringeworthy inter-office tensions of the fictional Department of Parks and Recreation, Pawnee, Indiana. The mockumentary style comedy centers around a cast of dysfunctional but hopelessly interdependent characters, rallying (if reluctantly) around their overly enthusiastic if slightly clueless boss: Leslie Knope (though a much more sympathetic even lovable character).
The first season is VERY ‘Officeish’, almost swapping out the archetypes form the afore mentioned foundation series, but as it progresses through its current 4 seasons takes on an identity of its own.
If you like the Office you’ll love this…
