First of 4 Jeanie in the Radiator videos released in to the wild

Yesterday marked the release of the first video from the Jeanie in the Radiator - Soapwork Sessions video shoot that I directed, produced and edited late last year.  The first release marks four weeks until Jeanie in the Radiator's biggest gig yet supporting BeatBullyz at Soundcontrol in Manchester on the 22nd February.

Details for how to purchase tickets for this can be found after the break.

The video also comes complete with a free download of the live acoustic recording made on the day.

Mike Pettyt Films - Tron Legacy Titles (A bit of fun)

In anticipation of the release of the big xmas flick "Tron Legacy" I got a bit carried away last night and made a short title sting for Mike Pettyt Films.

Website/Online Portfolio Reloaded

I recently began migrating my online portfolio to a great service; carbonmade.com and I've been having some trouble with the design and layout, but I think I may have cracked it, finally!

I must have been through about 10 different logo designs and layouts in the past 2 or 3 months but think I have finally settled on a simple, understated design (yes I know it looks a little like the windows phone 7 UI - that was kind of the point!) that will hopefully let the content do the talking.  Let me know what you think.

Cheers

So the day finally came that we had all been waiting for (well me at least!), The Jeanie in the Radiator Promo shoot!  Catch the full story after the break....

Prop Hunting for Jeanie in the Radiator Promo

Today has been very interesting, I went to UPMCR a used furniture and antique prop goldmine! They have everything you would ever need from sofas, chairs, tables, lamps, rugs, old framed graduation photos! I've managed to procure a full black chesterfield suite a large rug an antique floor lamp to complete the look for the interview.

The first draft waiting for changes and sign off

Got a bit of post Monday night 5-a-side poster design in this evening.  As per usual with these I got the bit between my teeth and wasn't content on leaving it half finished, so the first draft was done in just under 2 hours from scratch, another late night but it was a fun little project!

Jeanie in the Radiator - Promo Location Recce

Just been to the old colgate factory in Salford to take a look at possible filming locations for the upcoming Jeanie in the radiator promo shoot. It turned out to be just what I was looking for, industrial, stark and massive! Just got to find some period furniture to contrast with the industrial setting and we are nearly ready to go!
