• Old School People

  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.

• Too Art For TV

  

  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:

  • Erebuni is pleased to present Too Art for TV 3, the third annual group exhibition showcasing the fine art expressions of the animation industry. Twice before, this show has drawn in excited, elbow-to-elbow crowds of artists, illustrators, filmmakers, animators, and fans of animation. This year’s exhibit, now the biggest one in Too Art for TV’s history, features 36 artists who- by way of toys, prints, paintings, sculptures, and experimental film- will set free their skills otherwise “owned” by television networks bosses.*

  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.

• Monty Python on YouTube

  "*"For 3 years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube. Now the tables are turned. It’s time for us to take matters into our own hands.":http://uk.youtube.com/user/MontyPython*

  We know who you are, we know where you live and we could come after you in ways too horrible to tell. But being the extraordinarily nice chaps we are, we’ve figured a better way to get our own back: We’ve launched our own Monty Python channel on YouTube.

  No more of those crap quality videos you’ve been posting. We’re giving you the real thing – HQ videos delivered straight from our vault.

  What’s more, we’re taking our most viewed clips and uploading brand new HQ versions. And what’s even more, we’re letting you see absolutely everything for free. So there!

  But we want something in return.

  None of your driveling, mindless comments. Instead, we want you to click on the links, buy our movies & TV shows and soften our pain and disgust at being ripped off all these years."

  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.

  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.

• a fascinating note from my doctor

  

  I stumbled across this fascinating description about the small NHS Health Centre in Montpelier, Bristol.

  It’s worth scanning down to the midway point of Dr Stefan Cembrowicz’s article. It’s an amazing insight into living and working in one of the most vibrant cities in the UK, from homes that are resolutely additive-free, to those with cases of female circumcision. But most welcome, is the heartening professional fascination from my own Doctor.

  That reminds me I must pick up some more Khat leaves next time I pop down.

• Contains Violence (and Penguins!) at the Lyric

  

  …well if you want experience something new, Contains Violence at the Lyric Hammersmith could be for you.

  Watch the drama unfold from the from the roof of the Lyric, whilst a psychotic performance is played out in the office buildings across the square. With more than a hint of Rear Window, you can watch through the binoculas provided and tune into the action with a very effective bluetooth headset.

  Wrap up warm though, maybe take a small snifter for comfort, and oh, look out for the Penguins!

  Doesn’t it feel good when something just works?

  And the BBC iPlayer using Quicktime for it’s streaming is just great. You can’t be really cross with the hackers… I mean… we have paid for the stuff and we could have recorded it anyway… and you can’t take away my right to watch Mad Men in bed, on headphones with the lights out!!

  Pete Chung said: “Forget everything you’ve known about animation before this — and just watch with an open mind. This is filmmaking by someone inventing a new way to see, a film that breaks the boundaries between inner and outer experience.”

  Yeah baby.

  Here’s a little taste of what to expect from BBC 3’s new hospital doc series Bizarre ER, for which we did the graphics.
  The first programme arrives at 10.30pm on Thursday 14th Feb (for those couples that enjoy looking longingly into other people’s insides)

  Guys be warned – this isn’t going to be pleasant…

  A quick shout out for my chum Luis Cook and his short film for Aardmans: The Pearce Sisters.

  …having just received a well deserved recognition from those portly ladies and gentlemen at BAFTA, for Best Short Animated Film.

  Does this mean I’ll have to share my pillow with them all again? The things a hard working girl has to do!

  Good luck Luis

• Little Bit

  Not keen on the obligatory Mariah-Carey/ Attractive-female-gaze ending (If I look directly at you it means we’re having sex and you will buy my single, oh I’m looking at you again, oh and again…)
  but otherwise, I quite like the song and the video captures its… diapheneity rather nicely.
  Plus it has porcelain dogs, which is always a bonus.
