© 2008 Directors Notes. 
So I was giving my WordPress Dashboard a finally look before bed - don’t pretend you don’t do exactly the same thing - and noticed an incoming link from Podfinder UK for a film and TV podcast special episode which included our own humble Directors Notes! I’m not sure where in the UK host Josephine [...]
I’m sorry about the lateness of this list but if the truth be told I hate writing my top ten. I don’t mind weeding out the films I didn’t like and whittling down the amount of good films to a number resembling ten but it’s the ordering that I detest. Who’s to say that if [...]
Why do I feel the unhealthy, compulsion to spend days obsessing over what 10 out of the 123 films I watched this year (told you I was obsessive!) were my favourites, and why do I have to wait until every day of previous year has passed to ensure I’ve truly seen all the films I’m [...]

A project initially conceived by director Andy Gibson to demonstrate his aptitude with various software and hardware, Consider Yourself at Home is a 10-minute film comprising 17,000 still images [...]
My beer fuelled interview with co-directors Andy Gibson and Ryan Rogers is the first face to face interview we’ve put out and was great fun to do. Despite the ever growing stack of empty pints, the three of us managed to stay enough on topic to discuss the pairs’ stopframe animation Sunshine Indoors, an odd [...]
Our interview this week is with director Marcelo Garcia, who’s work has seen him warmly accepted by his peers, being able to take his pick of working with companies such as Fabrica and Lobo, not to mention having his inventively experimental ad spot for the Virtuosi International Music Festival in Recife, Brazil, be lauded up [...]
While the title seems to suggest some kind of invasive medical procedure, what’s actually happened is that the Podcast About Podcasting Podholes, has a segment - the afore mentioned P.A.P.
