I recently helped a colleague at work with a music video he was making for a friend. I added some stop motion and time lapse elements.

P.s. I bought a Smena 8M a little while back from a Ukrainian called Igor. It's a year older than me and is great. I also bought a Smena from the 60's for 1.50 [!] (plus 16 quid postage [i]) but I haven't given that a whirl yet.
Nice one eBay.

I recently finished a short film and it's up on my video page. I've called it Welded Wings.

Here is a link to Cartoon Brew. It's an article about The Illusionist (working title); the film I've been working on at ink digital for nearly a year now. I've been helping to paint the characters. It's the new one by Sylvain Chomet due for release in 2009. This is the first image to be released which shows the final look of the film.
I will add updates when they happen.

I was perusing the goods of my local record shop the other day and came across these two items shelved together.

I was shocked:
No.1) Books and CD's should be shelved separately to avoid confusion:)
No.2) When Mark Chapman shot Lennon dead this was the book that he had in his pocket. Very bad (but witty) taste to you local record shop. The greatest 'hits' DOES put the icing on the cake. Its a good book too. I'd recommend it.

More friends busy making Degree Shows:)

AND...

take a look at my mate Raymo's interactive musical project. He would like people to write and record a song inspired by the story written on his website. If you like making music then why not give it a go. To read the harrowing tale and to find out more information visit the Interactive Music Network.

On Tuesday I saw my first butterfly of the spring. On Wednesday the first bee. Today a ladybird landed on me while I was sitting eating my lunch on the grass. The sun is out, the birds are singing and not a moment too soon! Hopefully this shall herald an awesome summer!
On a side note my links page has been messed up for ages and I didn't realise. It is now thoroughly sorted (at least it should be) and I have added some friends who have recently made websites in preparation for their imminent degree shows.
Drop by and wish them luck!
