I was Director of Photography for the video linked above which includes footage of a Pt/Pd print version of this image (http://www.apug.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=32631&ppuser=6701):

(around the 1:44 mark)

As per usual - youtube does it no justice, but you get the idea...

Shot over 48 hours at Liams family home in Auckland, NZ - two person crew, Director Marc Swadel and myself...

Shot on Plus-X neg stock and 7201 on Bolex cameras then printed to positive for editing on a intercine flatbed then simply projected on a wall and captured in video for distribution.

If you didn't spot it David Lynchs Eraserhead and German expressionism was a major influence, at least on our accents during the shoot - another influence was hairs in the gate, scratchy footage, jumpy cuts and mistimed claw action etc... Marc did a great job dragging the print through the gutter as you can see

In the USA, MTV and VH1 used to show musical videos way back in the 1980's and 90's, but gave it up sometime back. Now they only show silly boy & girl shows, he said she said, not sure what it is about shows. A lot of Jerry Springer rejects - sorry about that, I hope I dont get sued by anyone for that libelous comparison. Have a good day all.
