Darren has been out and about around Jersey looking at suitable locations for the 24 hour stereoscopic time-lapse films for the Branchage Festival. Brian and I will be modifying and improving the camera and tripod system that we used for the East End films this week. The plan is to shoot all three films in the series at the beginning of July, which gives us about a week to test the camera...

Brian and I are working with Claudia Molitor (composer for Wrestle and Clouded) on a stereoscopic video piece which will form part of a commissioned work for the London Sinfonietta in October.
We are also starting a collaboration with Darren Umney and Site-Eye on a new series of stereoscopic time-lapse films in Jersey.

Had a very successful launch of the films for the East End Film Festival 3D installation in Spitalfields Market yesterday evening. The films will continue to run between 10am and 10pm until next Thursday, 30th April. Many thanks to the East End Film Festival, and particularly Mila Lipowicz, for making this project happen.
...and Brian and I have finally come up with a name for when we work together, we shall now be known as "map films" and we'll have a website up and running soon. Details of the collaborative works will still be here and on Red-Ochre Productions but we thought it would be good to have a repository of everything in one place.

We are very excited to announce that each of the EEFF videos will have a soundtrack by Michael Nyman, David Arnold, Ari Benjamin Meyers, Ben Park or Alabama 3
During the set up of the Tower of London shoot Brian was interviewed for an EEFF podcast that can be watched here
The photo above is from yesterday at my studio where I've been continuing trying out two camera sky time-lapse videos that I started in Trondheim. In Norway I only had a laptop with me so had to do tests using tapes, but back in my studio I can use two computers and do much longer tests. You can see the 10am to 6pm test from yesterday here (including bits of the roof line of the bus depot, and it seems they cleaned or replaced the flag whilst I was away!). Hoping to get some dawn to dusk shoots done over the next week.

Back in the UK now and just a few weeks away from the premier of the new stereoscopic time-lapse films Brian and I (we seriously need to come up with a name for our joint stuff) have been making for the East End Film Festival. Have set up a separate page here for information about the films and there is a short trailer using footage from all five films here
