The latest no-budget short film from me and my friends. Its an entry to the Guardian competition and response to Mark Ravenhills short story ‘Old School People’.
2 knights are sent to clear the land for the kings battle, stuff happens.
For my part i added some blood & gore fx and you can spot my role as twitching corpse in cowboy hat.
Its 5 mins long and continues our long no-budget videography of funny & slightly confusing films.
Written and directed by Mark Shand.

I’m having some work shown at the excellent Too Art For TV exhibition held at Erebuni, 158 Roebling Street, Williamsburg, New York. The opening is a week today (6-9pm 5th Dec)and the exhibition runs from 5th until the 15th Dec. The idea is to show work by industry animators who do art on the side:
If you’re in town (heh heh) please check it out. You can see from the website that there’ll be lots of exciting stuff to see, made by people far more talented and interesting than myself.

The BBC series Outnumbered starts again on Saturday. Definitely the most accurate portrayal of parenthood I have seen. It got squirrelled away in the schedules last time so a lot of people didn’t even realize it went out.
Here’s a clip from the first series, I couldn’t find one of the discussion between a brother and sister on whether you can kill a fairy with a machine gun, but this ones almost as good.
outmaneuvered
outwitted etc etc

Charlie Kaufman’s directorial debut Synecdoche, New York comes out soon and Aint It Cool have the trailer for it embedded here.
The film follows a guys attempts (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) to recreate a full scale replica of New York, including every brick and every person, inside an old aircraft hanger. Groovy idea.
Once you’ve watched that, scroll down the page to the first part of a very interesting two part interview with the man, recorded just as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was released.

Here’s some stuff relating to the last 2 posts.
Firstly Kevin Dart creates stuff in a similar style to those lovely book covers, though with a little less sleaze. He is also the guy responsible for the beautiful backgrounds in the BBC Olympic animation from Jamie Hewlitt and Co.
Nextly, here is some stuff on the making of that Color of Sound video The Ravonettes. It was directed by Chris Do of Bl:nd, the company who produce the great Rorschach inspired video for Gnarls Barkley’s Crazy.

My old friend Gerry from the animation world send me a sweet video by our old faves, the Raveonettes. Very much in the style of old stuff like Yuri Norstein and Lotte Reiniger.
Goes well with a chicken and watercress pasta salad it does.

The music machine animation has been about for a few years (And is fantastically tech), where as the Guinness advert is relatively new compared to it… inspired perhaps? Either way theyre both very well done… It’d be nice to see more creative adverts, if only personal injury compensation companies had the budget eh?

Saw The Paper Cinema at the Forest Fringe at the Edinburgh Festival. Brilliant and poetic, live animation.
What happens at the accidental meeting of inkblots, photocopies, cardboard, angle-poise lamps,
the occasional table, video technology, a laptop and a banana box?
A cast of hand-drawn marionettes are
magically brought to life by the Paper Cinema.
