My Art History: Don't Litter

A public service announcement. Age 9-10.

My Art History: Time Machine

My plans for a time machine. Contains all the important facilities necessary for negotiating the perils of time travel, such as emergency switch, game computer and TV. Bad photocopy - not sure what became of the original. Age 8-9

My Art History: Scissor Lift Rocket Sled Tank

A design for my epic Super 8 animated Hoth-esque snow battle, which never quite made it into production. Age 8-ish.

My Art History: Giant 5 Legged Squid

Not really a squid, but I suppose "5 legged octopus" would have made even less sense. Even the cat stepped in to try and help rectify the situation by contributing an extra "leg", while simultaneously providing himself as a scale reference.

Looks like I abandoned the colouring-in phase shortly after discovering that my textas weren't built to cover this kind of surface area. Age 6.

My Art History: Horses

Harder to draw than pianos. Especially galloping ones (horses that is). Age 6.

My Art History: Piano

Possibly one of my first perspective drawings. At first glance it appears that the keyboard is backwards, but actually it's just missing the black keys (lost interest perhaps..?). I've applied some heavy image enhancements since the pencil work is very faint. Age 5-6.

My Art History: Profiles

My first attempt at side view faces apparently. Age 5.

My Art History: Santa

With a... uh... lightsaber. Age 4. Pencil outlines courtesy of someone else I think.

My Art History

No, this is not a design for my next movie.

I always intended to have a place on the site for my drawings/paintings etc, but never seemed to have anything current that I'm authorised to show. So I've decided to raid the archives and start posting some of my earlier works. I might put them up in chronological order, and we can all pretend that I'm improving at a superhumanly accelerated rate!

This is the earliest one I could find with a date on it. Age 3.

Where Am I?

Still here, still doing stuff. Just thought you'd like to know... (taps desk and gazes out window in a pensive manner)...

Deconstruction Clips

A couple of snippets from the 16 minute Deconstruction on The Passenger DVD.

 

Hark!

Alright, enough with all these Passenger posts! Time for something else for a change.

Here's my winning entry from an EWQLSO Christmas competition back in 2004.  Based on an old carol, it served as an arrangement/orchestration exercise while I was gearing up to do The Passenger score.

...I said enough with The Passenger already!! Anyway, thought I might as well dust it off and give it another spin. 'Tis the season after all.

You Know You've Made It When...

This fellow has made an interesting film: Link Something strangely familiar about it though...

DVD NOW AVAILABLE

The ridiculously long-awaited Passenger DVD - which is now reputed for being so long-awaited that people have begun to forget that they were even waiting for it - has, in an unprecedented turn of events, actually become available!

So, with all that waiting out of the way, there's nothing left to do now other than to buy it I suppose (and if you want it for Christmas, I suggest you hurry).

Or if buying stuff isn't your thing, you could defile your senses with the quality deprived version that I uploaded to YouTube during a moment of self sabotaging madness, before I come to my senses and decide to take it down again.
