Discovering Hyundai- Sketches

Just some sketches I did  which I've used in the Discovering Hyundai music vid competition. So I lazily took photos of them and emailed them to myself. Rediscovered the power of the pencil.






It's late at night and about to head out to do some guerrilla filming. So do not fear, we may look like zapazistas, but we're just camera guys. Shooting. Footage.


Sum up,
Sleep well.

suicide, IT'S A SUICIDE!!!

Short and sweet. Suicide Kids is a thriller coming out in June 2011. They had a little competition going and I thought I might as well enter. Plus seems I've been flexing my design muscle of late. Getting back into the clean image. Here's one of 3:


Blood In. Blood out. Title got me listening to AOTP:



But seriously, suicide's for the weak.

Seems the church charity I did some work for wants me back. Designed a poster for them... Sorry if looks like an advert for a dandy good time in a gay club, but as any graphic designer, soldiers of art and Nazi's on trial will tell you, 'We were just following orders':


Reexporting some animations after a bit of a tweek. It's taking forever. But hey who's watching time. Tick Tock.

Sum up,

My words are fortified through struggle. Your words are empty and ring hollow. I'm sorry that you can never relate.

Metal Edge

Let me set the scenario. Film Challenge. Up against a few contestants. A shit load by the looks of it. An acquaintance brought me iuto the mix to join the team. There name was a Play on the Wil' Coyote Meme- Amorphous Anomalous. Clever Penny. And the teams were randomly given 3 scraps of paper. On these pieces of paper are elements which must be incorporated into the film: Film title, prop and quote. And everything had to be done in 48 hours.

Sci-Fi London 48 hour film challenge. Working on a adapted script great fun. I didn't do much just helped polished the film idea and shimmied the film in the right direction. It really was a group effort. Film's about an AI. Ah just watch it here. I did graphic/animation/edit in the beginning for the pseudo-infomercial and titles/credits.

An exercise in awesomeness. Well done team. Now back to the batcave where I do most of my true crime fighting.

Sum up,
Defying peoples perceptions and stereotypes since 2001

School of Life and other Unimportant Stuff.

Won a competition. Photostory. 1st place. 1000 or 500 pounds- can't remember. Blunts all around. I'll pass. Either way I have to split the money fiddy/fiddy. My photostory was based on a director's film. Jake Polonsky. School of Life. In the streets? Nah. Name of the film. Personally, I learnt fuck all in school. Lecturing pricks. See here a page (4 of 14):


Linguistic ingenuity. Like Imhotep, but dumber.
On another note: Currently entering this here competition:


Think Roswell. Will put up some sketches sooninsh. More meetings tomorrow and Saturday and throughout April.

Sum up,
They are like the Mafia "Just when you think you're out, they drag you back in" Crabs I guess.

Hello, Charlie. Would be cool if it was followed by Napalm and Agent Orange.

Greetings from the crypt of the shadow arts. Sorry people, dealing with some terrible technological mishaps that has me beaming my brain goo matter to you from the clankity clank of a rather robust PC keyboard. My mac laptop, after years of infidelity with chaos and bastardom, has left me. God rest her whorish soul. So now, hopefully I'll be able to recover most of my files she left with. Just because we are divorced doesn't entitle you to half, baby.

Did some boards a week or so ago for short Hello, Charlie.

Short film, dirtbag work. Here:




Sum up
Note well: Insults and approaching me with no ettiquette and respect for my time is a good way to be ignored. I'm a Martian, so enter my realm with caution .


"Excellent. Yes. Short film. Twenty frames a day...yes... my dayrate is 120 + VAT...for FREE?
And for when?  With updates on the hour? Sure, wait there, I'm just charging 
up my Illudium PU-36 Explosive Space Modulator."

Sum up,
