Caverns Measureless To Man

From this horde of bits, bobs, nicks and knacks...

Neil Edmond and myself hope to construct a short of some kind... About a bloke who makes things out of bits, bobs, nicks and knacks...



There is lo-fi, there is no-fi then there's this: "below-fi"? Here we construct a tiny ad hoc green screen.



I'll stick the camera tests up soon for your delectation.

Word.

Shore Thing

Did I not post this? No I did not. It's the latest piece of improvised bumfoolery from Peeder Jigson aka James Bachman, with help from Waen Shepherd as film scoring legend Howard Shore. I say latest, we shot it last year but I've been so busy I forgot to put it up.

Waen, of course, did the music.

Somewhere...

...in deepest darkest Finchley



In a proper edit suite no less (albeit in a shed in a garden) finishing off the corporate stuff from before Xmas. More new stuff soon...

Here's a little pre-Xmas treat from Lord Tunley friend Steve Oram (aka Steve Aura of Lincoln films) featuring ex- Cave Children stalwart Simon Farnaby.

It's another minimalist gem from Lincoln Studios whose style makes the average Beckett play look like an episode of C.S.I Miami! If you remember I was in another Lincoln Films production a short while back.

Enjoy...

Fiiinniiiishhhheddd!!!

Yup, another project done and dusted and ready to hurl into the howling void.



It's a little sketch written by David Armand, starring Dave and Will Andrews. It also features (and hideously under-uses the talents of) Sarah Baker, Tony Way and Toby Davies. Josh Topp clutched a replica weapon and did art dept duties including high quality smoke wrangling.

Bob Pipe was on camera, Simon Batchelar recorded noises. Waen Shepherd somehow got a film score out of his computer, possibly by occult means.

Finally, finally grading this action movie sketch thing which has now got to the point where I sometimes think: "Oh yeah, that looks good" and realise I'm looking at the original ungraded footage.



When it all gets too much I look at this totally mental labour of love, a really intricate project from, oh about a hundred years ago (via Shadowplay, like so many things).
