'Spider' Movie Trailer Gets Shortlisted!

I had a message from Frozen Moon last night informing me that the BBC had chosen my movie trailer as one of the final 10 shortlisted films to be screened at the Sci-film festival on 4th April.

 

I got the message at 9.47 pm last night, right before I crashed for the night, after filming the second night of the Wrexham Science Festival, which spans 7 days in a row.

 

Saturday is going to be very busy, with lots of people milling about, and lots of hands-on experiments, so I'll have to get some good kip on Friday night.

 

I'm amazed that my movie trailer has been shortlisted, and it WILL be shown at the final on Wednesday 4th April. I'm going to be filming the festival as well, as there's a local band named 'Katch' opening with a half-hour set, then plunging right into the films, should be a great night!

First day of Science festival done

Last night was the first night of the Wrexham Science Festival, and it went quite well.

 

Frozen Moon are filming all the festival, making a compilation of the whole event, and it will be put onto DVD.

 

I'm now preparing for tonight - the second night

First upload to Current TV accepted!

I uploaded my first Channel Ident to Current TV yesterday, and it's been accepted for showcasing on the website:



I hope it gets Greenlighted!

All Go for Wrexham Science Festival

Just been in a meeting with Frozen Moon, with regards to the science festival which starts tomorrow. We will be shooting a small section of as many talks and demonstrations as possible, then editing them together to make a short video of the event, which will be on the website, and could possibly be handed out on DVD as well.

 

So its all go for tomorrow - exciting!

Current TV

A new and exciting TV station, called Current, has started up in the UK, on Channel 229 on Sky, and at http://uk.current.com

 

It is effectively YouTube for TV, but without the crappy-shitty videos you often find on YouTube, this channel is made by the public, for the public, and at present has NO adverts, like the ones on ITV, CH4 etc... It's really a refreshing channel.

 

The programmes on show are in the form of 'pods' - viewer created videos, and 'VC2' pods  - all on shuffle, so you don't know whets coming next, and there's unlikely to be repeats one after another, I was watching Current yesterday, and saw a comedy sketch about Apple and Bill Gates, follows by a hard-hitting documentary about the gold mines in the poorest countries in the world, followed by an inspirational video about a street artist who draws around shadows, making street art.

 

I'm going to start off by making a promo spot for Current, then move up to making some VC2 pods

NEWI LAN 3

Went to a LAN Party on Saturday 10th, was pretty good, played CoD3, UT2004, GTA:VC multiplayer mod, RA2.

 

Must have been about 30-ish people there are one point, cant wait for the next one, oh, I hope we do a 48 hour event

Wrexham Science Festival

The Wrexham Science Festival is coming, and will span from Tuesday 27th March to Wednesday 4th April 2007, covering numerous talk, seminars, and experiments relating to the theme of science.

My part in all of this is that I am going to be part of one of the film crews filming this event, its going to be a busy week, with lots of events taking place at the same time, but that's what I like, lots of material to film. The filmed material will be edited down by Frozen Moon Productions (www.frozenmoon.co.uk) and will be shown on Propeller TV and BBC2W.

SAWPC videos are being viewed a lot

My San Andreas Wildest Police Videos, collectively, at 14:48 today, has had 2,692 views! that's just in the month or so since they've been uploaded!

 

I guess YouTube viewers have good taste!

Wrexham Science Festival

I'm hopefully going to be working in partnership with Frozen Moon Productions to film all 8 days of the Wrexham Science Festival.

There's going to be events every day, so there will need to be a few film crews active on those days.

I'll take some pictures to capture the atmosphere, and the footage will be edited down, and will be shown on Propeller TV, and on BBC2W - yet another chance to get my work shown by the media
