I uploaded my film to Atom Films (search the URL yourself) because I wanted a better quality version of the film than YouTube offer. Also, I uploaded it under my name rather than my nom d’internet and amended the film credits accordingly. It was entirely kosher, as far as I could see. [...]

MyBlogLog
I stuck a MyBlogLog thing on the sidebar. I don’t know why. Because I could, I suppose. Plus I saw in one set of stat reports that someone was reading my blog through the MyBlogLog site. Which is both interesting and infuriating. Interesting because it’s clever how it did that [...]
FrightFest
The London Frightfest horror film festival is taking place this weekend from Thursday evening through until Monday. The festival climaxes with the premiere of Day Watch, the sequel to Night Watch (which I loved and some others didn’t) on Monday night. I discovered this morning that the lovely Gia, fresh from the success [...]
Director’s Cut
I’ve been messing around with my film a little more and added a soundtrack to it. I’m quite pleased because I managed to find a piece of music that is not only the right length but also amazingly suitable for the video. Not only that but I can use it freely under the [...]
How not to make a film
This has been sitting on my hard drive for longer than I care to remember.
Some time ago, I persuaded a few people (at least one of whom owned a DV camera) to help me make an ultra-short film. Up until recently, the BBC website had a 1 minute movie challenge and I [...]

Zaboo’d
In a bid to spread love and happiness and warnings about creepy internet strangers, I bring to you what you want: the 2nd episode of The Guild.
But Dragon, you lament – possibly with much wailing, gnashing of teeth and pulling out of hair but probably not, you haven’t mentioned this before. What happened to [...]
Regrets (I’ve had a few)
Or: The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men gang aft agley.
It didn’t take a couple of months. It took a little over two hours.
I can be quite impulsive at times. Impulsive and obsessive. I can temper it most of the time or something will always work against me which [...]
Tony vs Paul
This stop motion film, made by two guys from Massachusetts, is quite simply awesome and one of the best things I’ve seen recently. Simply fantastic.
Where angels fear to tread
I think I’ve just done something that I’m going to regret in a couple of months.
Oh well.
