"Ain't Teletext Brilliant"

An advert made for a university project. With apologies to Paul Whitehouse



"Escape Velocity"

A science fiction short film begun in university (1995). The source video has been sitting unedited on Video 8 tapes in a cupboard for ages. I finally got around to capturing it into the computer using the analog-in port of the new Canon Mini DV camera. I've been begun putting a rough cut together with Final Cut Pro. The quality of the video is really poor and several key scenes from the opening were never completed. If only I'd put a little more time and money into the project.

A medium shot of the lead characters space ship. This technique has been used in many films including Total Recall and Alien.



Pyrotechnics get out of hand! A miniature we built for a scene of an exploding air lock goes up in flames.
