Finally Back Bitches

So I had a holiday and at the end of it was like, man, back to work and I suppose I should get back to blogging. But then I decided that I liked being on holiday, so decided to take a little more of a break from the internet and blogging in general. But then that holiday just turned into laziness and hence why I’m now weeks overdue on posting anything. Go me.

So things have certainly been happening. Two lots of friends have finished their film shoots over the new years. The good folk at Downending films filmed the bulk of their Kaikahu Road and I look forward to seeing some filmstuff from them soon. From what second hand talks I’ve heard, they’ve just got a few pick ups to do a few months down the track, but they managed to shoot the bulk of a feature film in less than two weeks and that certainly says something about efficieny.

Meanwhile the lads of Chasing Time productions have nearly finished their shoot of One Fat Man’s music video/experimental film thing that’s to tie in with Jeremy’s new album “a typical day in suburbia”. I’ve sneaked a peak at a little of the footage and it’s got some pretty neat-o stuff, so here’s to seeing how that goes down the line.

In other films news? Yeah, got nothing, but hey, here are two totally awesome ads. The first one from Cadbury, hot on the heels of their strange but awesome Gorilla ad is one with these freaky kids with freaky eyebrows getting their funk on. Apparently its not computer generated or anything, but watch the video for yourself and decide just how human these kids are.

The second ad for T-Mobile takes an awesome concept from the Improv Everywhere guys and applying it on a bigger scale with more people and an obvious budget and such. Hard to describe, so just click play and enjoy the fun.

Amazing Robocop Rap

Totally awesome. Nuff said.

Quite Possibly The Greatest Ad Ever Ever

Oh and NSFW unless you work in a strip club. Then you’re not safe for work if you hanging out on the internet instead of doing your awesome job.

Another Overdue Catchup Post

I’m now on several weeks holiday cause apparently I don’t take any holidays and I’m well overdue to be on a break and relax. Really nice timing for it to be over the Christmas/New Years period, but because this wasn’t so much of a planned holiday, I’ve not got much going on at the moment apart from looking for another job and looking forward to the Mountain Goats tomorrow. That’s about where my priorities are at the moment. Or what I can think of off the top of my head.

Anyway, I’ve got to get back into a mind frame of updating this more often, the amount of stuff I’ve now got to post in one go is getting really bad.

A strange phenomenon that occurred in the middle of the ocean that’s baffled scientists called the bloop.

A great comic about Warren Ellis being King of the Internet, and I’d agree. He also recounts a great conversation he had with his daughter the other day which I thought was great.

Though in reality it is undoubtedly a horrible experience and one I wouldn’t wish on anyone, you’ve just got to appreciate the irony of this article’s title: US anti-kidnap expert kidnapped.

A video of the sounds and voices from the video game Left 4 Dead spliced together to hilarious results.

A Japanese commercial that stars Brad Pitt, directed by Wes Anderson and makes absolutely no sense.

And finally, scientists have gotten spinning drops of water to behave like black holes which you can read here or watch this video instead.

Only one more sleep till The Mountain Goats. I’m freakin stoked.

Ughbot kill

Flu is over. Feeling much better these days. Just really hungover is all.

An ad I shot a while ago is now online here with a write up about it in the times here.

Meh, my brains not processing much else right now. So here’s a way more awesome ad campaign with a digital Bruce Lee using nunchucks to kick ass at ping pong and light matches in the air. The man is so awesome.

Why Is Nathan Fillion So Awesome?

As opposed to Fin’s rather cruel post, this PG Porn video is awesome. I mean, for one, it’s got Nathan Fillion and ain’t nothing he does is not worth watching… I’m so tired I can’t tell if that last sentence means what I meant it to mean. Christ I need sleep. Watch the goddamn video!

The Internet Hates You

Forgot to mention the second Hamilton screening of It Came From the Swamp was on last night. There will be an Auckland screening tonight at the Wine Cellar, so if anyone isn’t up to anything and in the area up there, head on over and check out some quality films.

Alternatively you can check out this new Microsoft Zune ad. We don’t have Zunes in New Zealand and its pretty doubtful we ever will, but that doesn’t matter. Just watch this video and be amazed… hehehe.

Ugh… pt2

Still coding in new website design. Still taking ages. I hate coding.

Here’s a video of my personal hero Christopher Doyle being Christopher Doyle that’s kept me a little happy tonight…

…birds are chirping outside. I’m going the fuck to bed.

Chris Cunningham

Been ‘listening’ to a lot of music videos while I’ve been web building and figured why the hell not post some of my favourites by Chris Cunningham…

The wonderfully controversial “Come to Daddy” by Aphex Twin


Equally offending, but brilliantly hilarious “Windowlicker” also by Aphex Twin

The Horrors’ “Sheena Is A Parasite” with Samantha Morton looking even more crazy.

Cunningham’s crazy Playstation ad that I remember seeing years ago on TV and it doing nothing bu freaking the shit out of me and going what the fuck?

Quite possibly my favourite music video of all time, Bjork’s “All is Full of Love”
