Watching Cinema: Hobbyist

My latest documentary exploring the present and future of film for hobbyists. Picking the brains of Geneva Stop Bristol (film conversion house) we examine what makes people shoot on film and the advantages that holds.

Huge thanks to Rob Cox and to Geneva Stop.

Total Immortal of the Living Dead

So i was a busy beaver today and had this on my mind. I've had it tucked away half-started on a harddrive for the longest time. Now its done! Unfortunately these were the highest res i could find for the pair of them. I guess this is for my school friends for letting me steal some of the best mini discs ever. Thanks.

A.F.I - Total Immortal This is my absolute favourite band combined with my most watched film. The film clips are from Night of the Living Dead (which as we all know is now well out of copyright) which i had already made. When i finally bothered searching for the A.F.I video i realised that they were trying to knock off my favourite movie so i mashed them together. The blend of punk and zombies seems to work well (Misfits anyone?) but i suppose the similar shooting style helps a bunch. Very low quality but buckets of fun to finally get out of my head and onto the screen.

If you have any brain at all check out A.F.I when they were punk (early E.P's) and the films of George A. Romero when he still had life in him.
