DABDA

So I finally put my graduate film online.
The end result of a year of horrible work and stress (with a thesis involved to boot). I thought I hated it for months but when I finally finished it I was quite pleased with the end result. Still am! So without much further Apu, here it is as it looked at the 2009 IADT Graduate exhibition and the 2009 Galway Film Fleadh:

The Amazing Few

This video isn't new but I felt it should get mentioned up here.
The Amazing Few are a Dublin based Ska/Punk/Psychobilly/Fun type band who are great. I've done a few bits of animation for them over the last year or so, I've been asked to do a bit more for their upcoming show.

I thought I'd show you this live video of their song 'Bruce Lee Movie' from their upcoming live DVD. The projections behind the band were designed and animated by me.
Enjoy:



PS. I'm also visible dancing like a fool somewhere in the audience

New Volta

For some stupid reason it didn't occur to me to post about New Volta until now.

New Volta is a film screening club that's just emerged in Dublin run by Bob Gallagher. The intent is to hold a monthly screening of shorts made by just about anyone, as festival circuits can be difficult to get on.
Today's was in Bewley's on Grafton St. and went very well. My graduate film DABDA was screened along with others. New Volta should be returning on the first Tuesday of every month from now on.

Here's the Facebook page with a still from DABDA for a profile picture. Heh!

EDIT: DABDA can now be found here!

Star Wars Uncut

I got a link to the site Star Wars Uncut a while ago and figured I'd give one a try. What they've done is chopped up A New Hope into 15 second segments and doled them out to whomever wants to recreate them.
I think it's an idea that has some potential and hopefully the end result will be kind of cool and have an interesting flow to it.
Anyway here's my 15 seconds:



PS. They're going by the 2004 version of the film unfortunately, I can't always have my way. I'm hoping the nerds will shine through and either remove the glaring extras or at least mock them.
