    Let's hope so, as music videos are only a little of what I aspire to do with this! Hope and pray and work, work, work! Some day a feature of this would rock!

  • jim le fevre plus 2 years ago
    Well done sir, it's a deliciously dark treat going through your films.

    Friendly nightmares, each and every one, slightly reminiscent of a dark chapter in a Clive Barker book.

    Which is a good thing indeed.

    Hi Tobius;
    Are you doing the base aerial shots with a camera mounted to an RC airplane or heli? I have been trying to get an HD Canon TX1 to wotk in an electric Big Bee airplane for great HD aeriel shots. Love your videos. If someone is not moved or intrigued by this work, they just don't have a passion for video!

  • Nilz plus 2 years ago
    Used to follow your stuff on youtube. Recognized your style on another video right away. I had only seen the storyboard version of this before, this turned out great. This seems silly to ask you as I would almost definitely assume you know them but have you seen any of the brothers quay films? If you haven't you NEED to watch them, i know you would love them. Street of crocodiles would be a good one to start off with.
