Watford Induction
Everyone was nervous, especially me. At one point I though I was going to be late despite arriving in Watford two hours early, the tension was sapping my energy so much my muscles just wouldn’t operate properly, I must have looked like a pensioner in a gale as I struggled towards the campus.
We had a quick viddy of the chocolate factory and a not –so-quick chat before we could break for lunch. My sandwiches had escaped and were running riot over the inside of my bag. After lunch we were set a brief and had an hour and a half to respond. All ideas bar one were binned which meant we learned a lot about what not to do.
I started to grasp the reasoning of a one hour brief and why you don’t go back to it on the way home but could only distil it into a distasteful sporting analogy along the lines of. If you don’t score against Blackburn, you go and practice then play the next match, you don’t go back and play Blackburn again.
I managed to get lost on my way back to the station again, not because I don’t know the way but because my brain was thinking of so many things I walk just walked past the turnings I was supposed to make.
All in all it was an excellent day, my course buddies seem friendly and interesting, good targets for investigating/obsessing over until I know them inside out. I really have a sense that we are about to embark on something magical and special in September and that the hard work has not even begun. The time is almost here, the new cult members have been indoctrinated and I am off to get “Watford” tattooed on my gums.

Limpet

Limpet how did you climb so high,
With wires whispering from your eye?
I didn't see the sea before,
But a change in the air,
Led the ocean ashore,
Limpet with your wiper blade,
Limpet, leaden, lost, man made,
Limpet wait to wash away,
Limpet, leaden, lost, dismay.

Squid Design

Here's a design that i have been working on over the last couple of days. If i can get permission i intend to make it into an installation using stencils on quite a large scale. Obviously i am a squid fan, i like the way that they swim with their legs at the front, but they can also propel themselves backwards to escape danger. I don't think its a survival mechanism though, they just get very embarrassed if they have to come out of water. I would be self conscious too though if i looked like a pile of wet laundry and my legs flailed around as if they were on strings.

Delinquent Fairies


A while ago I was asked by my good friend Jenny to draw a couple of fairies (above) for a comedy pilot she was working on at her production company. They were accepted and have now made their way over to comedy box, where they adorn the frame surrounding the videos. You can view the films here:
And Jenny’s lovely work here:

Filming Docu-View Pilot
So we started (and finished) filming the Docu-view pilot on Tuesday. The rain drops were happy just sitting in their clouds watching and although the sun made an appearance, Icarus could have been charging around in a pair of butter wings without having to worry about the temperature. Everyone that came along to help was amazing in spite of the cold and the amount of time spent standing around. We feasted on their creative talent, then their hollow shells were put to work carrying and lifting and generally doing what we told them. Did they complain? Not one bit.
The read through was done on Monday night so it was encouraging that people were still laughing at bits the next day. Sometimes its difficult to know if what you have written is funny when you wrote it in the first place and you have read it lots of times, so i really enjoyed seeing other people's reactions on both days.
I will upload the video once the editing is done.

Tony Cullingham is trying to kill me.
I went to another interview for "The Watford Course" and once again i was not able to eat anything for the entire five hours that it lasted. Last time we had a lunch break but there was nowhere to get any food. This time i brought my own food but there wasn't any time to eat it. If i have to go back again i will just allow myself to slip into a diabetic coma midway through my presentation, i think you get extra points for "bravado". Although i can imagine waking up in hospital with Tony ringing up to say that he had seen someone else do that before, very unoriginal. Even if you don't want to get into advertising you should go to one of these interviews, you get a talk on creativity, guidance counselling and a painfully accurate character assassination. By the end of the day you start to wonder if you have in fact been recruited by some sort of creative religious cult. Maybe you have. I have attached two stickers that i took along to bribe the interview panel, now i just have spend the next few weeks harassing the post man for a letter so i know if i got in or not.
