Sisyphus finally accepted

Sisyphus made it onto Loopdeloop!

EXTENDED: Zine

We finally got round to printing our zines in the flesh (despite setbacks).
There is something really nice about the quality of screen-printing, which makes each copy unique. I also think our choices of inks and card stock worked really nicely too. It was good to get in the print studio and away from computers for a bit.

EXTENDED: Archive footage

We are trawling through archive.org finding footage from old news-reels, public information films and advertising. The footage we find can be rotoscoped over, cut up and manipulated to form part of the montage/collage effect.

I am also looking through some of the better videos to find audio samples which might help Walter with the soundtrack.

EXTENDED: Music

On Monday we met with Walter from LCOM, to discuss the project and see if he is up for doing some music/sound design for us. He seemed quite keen and interested in the project, but has a lot on, so may not be able to see it all the way through.

We have shared with him some artists whose music we like the sound of, as well as a series of animations which show either a similar style of audio or visuals to what we are aiming for.

Hopefully the film will end up like some bastard child of Ballard and these videos:
