I made this a couple of days ago as a 30 second demo to get a specific job, and thought you may dig the awesome placeholder music I used to cut to (please click the vimeo button and then watch it full screen HD for full effect). I got the job (yay!), but the feedback on the music track was that ‘it may frighten the grannies’, as they’re the ones that attend the arts centre cinema during the day (rather than the hipster evening crowd). It’s not my music, indeed when I tried to up this to youtube the audio got removed due to copyright infringement, so I now need to make a rough approximation of it ay some point soon. Those with a tech bent may like to know that the video was made entirely from still photographs (95% that I shot on my Panasonic GF1, the other 5% off the ‘net) with the post done in Final Cut, animation in AfterFX, and end titles in Motion.
Now i want to hear the rest of the song, sounded great.
I forgot to say congrats on the job. Glad to see that someone is getting work and doing well in this economy.
It looks beautiful, Blimpy. Very very nicely done.
very cool Blimpy! Nice one!
Grannies. Pffft
I’m supposed to be frightened? Pah! That’s a very patronising Arts Centre; they don’t deserve their granny audience.
Their granny stereotype REALLY need updating.
i couldn’t agree more!
So…a ‘Spill outing to Dundee, and a Social in their caff? Everyone dressed up as a granny?
(Loved the film, Blimpy, btw.)
I like this idea. Best to do it before you move south, perhaps?
I found it scary.
Wimp!
Excellent, well done Blimpy. I’m not (yet) a granny but I am the right age, so happy to join in any granny-protest action.
Last time I signed on the clerk said “I don’t want to teach my grandmother to suck eggs …” (She was lucky Ididn’t clobber her with my zimmer frame)
Sorry, that was me, old age never comes singly
Thanks guys! You are very kind (and this is just the demo that I knocked up in a day, just wait til I spend two weeks doing the real deal!! I’ll put it up once it’s done)
Put some grannies in it…
There’s already one in the first shot!!
I didn’t mean that kind
Nice work blimpy – do you think the grannies might prefer Dundee’s finest The View?
Good tune. Don’t get the vid. Moving up from videos to advertising? At this rate I’ll be dead long before the Blimpy movie sees the light of day. Think bigger, my friend.
