I ended up editing this in a rush yesterday from about 1000 seperate images for Charlotte.

"After being given an open brief at university, I had the idea of getting 10 people to give me a word each, all of which I would have to include in the story. These would pop up as images after the words. Which is why not all of them that could, have images. I wanted to make an animation and scripted it to be very childish and raw. I think it came out pretty well for a first ever film and animation! POKE!"

Sadly i don't get a credit, but thought I'd post it here so you guys can see that I'm not just slacking.

It took a ridiculously long time, and because the computer slowed right up, was finding it very hard to sync the coutdown, so it is quite out, and doesnt flow.

I'm sure Scott (and others) will have a go and start trying to sell me a mac. Go away, I'm not interested in the slightest. I like my shitty Windows Vista, It has personality.

Without further ado.... Here is the video.




An interesting little tale told by fridge magnets.

Anyone new to the blog should click HERE to start off.

Yesterday i was left thinking that the world was a great place, a really happy place, and that nothing could better that day. I was wrong of course, today was EVEN better. Somehow inexplicably, (though i will now try) i had an even better day, despite traipsing the wrong way round London several times.

So, yes, I took Jenni with me around London aiming to meet with my friend Rowan, who i hadn't seen since New Years day. We were late and only ended up getting about 45 minutes together, but was long enough for everyone to feel good, and also to arrange a meet up for the first weekend in January. It was great to catch up breifly too. I feel like i'd missed out on talking to [another] one of my best friends all year.

Here's to talking more Row. :)

After this, we had decided it would be cool to try and get the best 'I' word possible, to get the challenge back on track, and not limited to just being indoors.

There was talk of taking picutres of all the Christmas lights and using I for Illuminations, we took some anyway, but then thought of the Ice Bar. I think i may have been subliminally influenced by something i saw on iPlayer the other day where there was a business man who owns an Ice Bar, but still. We aimed to go.

So via a fantastic little Crepe Cafe just behind Oxford Street on a fantastic little European styled Square, where we ate, we walked to Regent Street from Bond St tube. Along South Molton Street, where there is a 'Lush', (where women spend ALL their hard earned cash) then along Old Bond Street where if they hadnt just spent it all, they'd want a diamond encrusted dress or something, Jenni found me a wonderful little display with icicles on it. And eventually onto Regent Street, where the Ice bar sits just off of.

So.... Today Ice bar wins, but i liked all my pictures so much i want to share them all.
