The Agnes Kain clip is finished!  I’m very happy with the end result. There are no effects in post, everything was shot in camera… which is probably obvious right up until the end. You can check out my previous posts to see how it was made from conception to birth.  Big thanks to Chanelle and Stef and ultra-mega-big thanks to Ryan for wearing ridiculous things,  standing in uncomfortable poses for extended periods of time and just being generally rad.

shot one of the final scenes of the agnes kain clip last night. it was a full size rear projection shoot exactly like the mighty boosh just with less crimping.

a few little scenes left to shoot and edit and then that’s a wrap. it’s pretty exciting to see how the clip’s turning out, especially seeing how it’s evolved from the original idea. i’m animating the clip “in camera” with no effects in post. it moves a lot of the problems that usually need to be solved from inside a computer out into the real world where they’re easier to deal with. mainly because in the real world every single problem can be solved with gaff tape. ryan the birdman agrees.

winter’s the best but the weather’s been holding back shooting on the agnes kain clip again. i’ve been working on everything that can be done inside out of the way of the falling sky water which luckily includes experimenting with projected backgrounds – parallels are cropping up between the agnes clip and the cuba is japan clip again. planning a big rear projection shoot this week. should be a sort of scaled up, person size version of what’s going on down there. i’ll be sure to post something about it. for the moment i’m setting up the mini version…

if you follow my twitter you’ve probably noticed the robot binge. it’s had it’s effect… behold the homunculus!

more soon.

shooting the begining and end of a clip for cuba is japan over the next couple of days.

i’ll deliver more details tomorrow.  day two begins…
