Trailer for new Yokohama Coyote Short

Here's the latest trailer for Yokohama Coyote's new short - it's a kind of music video I guess. Shot in Kimihiro Shida's particular style up on the north side of Tokyo (I think) where the horrible things happen (ie. where Hiro and I both live). If you're watching on Facebook check it out here.

Walton teaser trailer animatic

We started prepartion for the promotional trailer for Walton a while back and part of this work included a teaser animatic created by pre-vis artist Morgan Denton. The promotional trailer will be longer, probably 3 or 4 scenes plus a kind of money-shot teaser at the end. If you're reading this on Facebook click here to see the trailer.

Looking for a beginning

Headed up into the mountains with Darrell Nelson recently to scout out some potential locations for the first scene from Walton. This scene will also be the first scene of the promo trailer that we're going to shoot in February.

The day was characterized by a total lack of prepartion that was only matched by a ridiculous amount of luck in being able to find exactly what we were looking for.

Check out the Sound of Music pics followed by the ones with adjusted colour, probably a bit closer to the look we'll be going for...

Walton

Just finished off the latest draft of the synopsis for a feature script, entitled "Walton" (at least for now). Been researching and writing it on and off (mostly off) for a year. It's a gothic science fiction story influenced a lot by Edgar Allan Poe's writing and the late 19th century romanticists as well as by movies like Bladerunner and the Exorcist. I've teamed up with a couple of veteran writers to help finish it off and am shopping it around at the moment...

新し名刺

Got a few things on the go at the moment but can't really talk about them yet. Less mysterious than it sounds. I have to make sure things are going to happen before I talk about them. One involves a script I've been working on on and off for the last year.

But anyway, done up some new business cards in the meantime. Holy craps! look at that - business cards!!!

Only problem was I just ordered them without checking how much they would actually cost. The bastards are so expensive I don't think I can actually give them out to anyone.

Made in Glitch promo video

While I'm at it, here's a promo video I put together for Made in Glitch it features some images from the upcoming video I'm editing for edIT from the Glitch Mob. The music for the promo video is by Betamaxnomates from MIG. It was shot on an Sony EX1 with Alfie Goodrich working as director of photography. The full video with music by edIT will be released soon by Made in Glitch.
