Sort Of, Dunno, Nothin’

This was shared with me at work and now I am sharing with you lot :)

Apparently the song is from a breakfast show on Australian radio, this is it’s accompanying video.

    Chewbacca and a Jawa boogie to Footloose, Princess Leia and Queen Amidala do their thing to Girls Just Want to Have Fun, and Darth Vader plus a few Stormtroopers dance to Thriller in Dance Off with the Star Wars Stars.

    Look’s like an amateur film but it’s some slick animation!

    The second film in the franchise is being made as we speak, can’t wait!

  • I Can Do That!

    Last week I went to see the videographer for our wedding and met him at his house. Expecting just to note down a few ideas in his front room, we were escorted into his “studio”, an impressively set out room at the back of his house. Upon taking a seat in his very lovely leather chair, he proceeded to show myself and Katie’s family what his previous wedding bookings he had recorded.

    As I sat there watching his video in Final Cut Pro, I pondered about the logistics of setting up my own Video company, one where I would be available for Weddings and private events but go at it with a bit of a different slant.

    When I say different, I would try and make the marriage ceremonies live on the internet for family who could not attend around the world, have a Youtube-esqe service that would allow the wedding goer’s to embed snippets of the day on their websites or even email. I could offer a service to other wedding videographers maybe?! Who knows! (OK, I’m running away with it now).

    They would get DVD’s with personalised covers and disc printing, you name it.

    It’s a serious thought, I will look into investing in some more equipment (a legit copy of Final Cut Pro comes in at near on £4000!) and see what happens. I run my own media company anyways, seems like a good area of business to be in.

    Watch this space.

    I found this on Vimeo earlier and thought the animation was awesome:

    The guy who made it is called Wil Barani and his site can be found here.

  • I saw this advert on TV last night during the Championship Play-off Semi Finals and sat there in amazement for a minute in a half. Take a look at the advert and tell me what you think:

    If people arent familiar with the puppet in question, it’s Brains from Thunderbirds (a Gerry Anderson puppet show from the sixties).

    Love it!
