Alex Yde
We’re so used to special fx in films, that when you stumble across something your eyes have trouble believing you instantly believe it must be down to digital trickery. The work of Alex Yde proves that sometimes incredibly talented (and bendy) individuals are all you need to make a breathtaking short. Break ton Neck from [...]
Alain Bashung: Variations sur Marilou
A hypnotising musical short film from Maxime Bruneel set to Alain Bashung’s interpretation of Serge Gainsbourg’s Variations sur Marilou. NSFW, but only in the most artistic way possible. Alain Bashung – Variations sur Marilou from maxime bruneel on Vimeo.
Machine
At Reading Festival this year I was lucky enough to witness the audio visual delight that is Radio Soulwax, as they blew the roof off the NME/Radio 1 stage with their giddy mix of cut & paste style music and trip inducing visuals. The experience is so intense and such an onslaught that it’s hard [...]

So you’ve got the picture lock on your indie masterpiece and whilst you’d love to bring in a composer to add that musical magic, there’s just no way the budget can stretch any further to cover it, so you now have the foreboding task of blindly hunting the web for some licensable music.

Seeed: Wonderful Life
Peter Razz takes Seeed’s playful cover of Black’s Wonderful Life and somehow makes it even quirkier by accompanying it with a video of a large furry creature (not too dissimilar from the honey monster) running from various explosions. Sound weird? It is! It’s also awesome! Seeed “Wonderful Life” from Peter Razz on Vimeo.

On the 27th July I made my way to Black Rat Gallery to see Brent Green’s Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then. The event was hosted by Branchange Film Festival. I had only heard of Brent from MarBelle and having checked out some animation I took him up on his offer of going to see a [...]
