A long-running project has finally come to fruition! I'm excited...
Please take a moment to savour two outstanding new TV ads for Cravendale Milk from our clever friends at W&K London
They feature the distinctive stop-motion animation technique of bizarre Belgian animators PicPic & Andre
I think these are going to be massive. There's real charm
in the surreal, homespun animation, and delightfully quirky sound
effects, which have universal appeal, and suggest to me that these
little films could be classics in the making.
Miiiiiiiillllk!
Back home from our wonderful trip to Cape Verde Islands - a truly magical place. Highly recommended.
I've posted a medium-sized Flickr set of my snaps, if anyone's interested.
And this is the link for the slideshow.
Work is as relentless as ever. Damn it!
No GPRS in Cape Verde, so a small mountain of email to disassemble. Damn it!
Wall-to-wall sunshine in the UK while we were away. Damn it!
So appreciated a minor distraction today - a montage of all Jack Bauer's "Damn It!"s in all seasons of 24.
After a brief chuckle, made me wonder (as do many many YouTube clips) more about the person who actually assembled the clip.
How much time did he (I confidently assume 'he') actually spend putting this together?....by my reckoning there are 6 seasons of 24, each consisting of exactly 24 hours of TV viewing.
So even if he worked on this non-stop, that's nearly a full week of his life spent resolutely looking out for "Damn It!"s. That's nuts....
Then of course, there's the time spent knitting the clips together...never a speedy process in my experience
Realistically, this short clip represents up to two or three weeks concerted effort on the part of one extremely dedicated chap.
You have to ask WHY?
What on earth can have been his motivation?
Packing light and heading off into to the wilderness for a few days...
Looking forward to lots of this...
Hopefully none of this...
or this...
Happy Easter!
