Yet another Chopper related post. No real text this time though, just some videos that I made of the process thus far. It might help explain why I’ve done each step, if you’re interested in that sort of thing.
SEO title spamming aside, it’s official, I’m a cat person. I’m a cat person to the extent that my kittens – Lori and Tilly Valentine – now have their own YouTube channel so they can share their playing and antics. I’ll be honest, it’s a mild attempt to get one to go viral in a … Continue reading
For the last couple of years I’ve built up a bit of a reputation around the Bristol music circuit. I’m not talking about those two unfortunate occasions when I got too drunk and fell off the stage (times which are fortunately behind me now), but I mean stylistically. Whenever I stepped onto a stage, people … Continue reading
Very few things in the world ever make me say “wow” out-loud these days. I blame the Internet. It’s desensitised me to pretty much everything, and it’s hard to think of something that I haven’t seen before.

Less songs that there are countless instructional videos out there for (think songs like Sweet Child … Continue reading
I love when I play The Raccoons theme tune at a gig. No-one ever expects it. Anyway, I was looking at a few versions on YouTube and I came across this. I couldn’t help but laugh at it. Wait until it gets going and watch the expressions of the guy on the left. Brilliant. Also, … Continue reading
So, last night I played as part of Oxjam at Mr Wolfs, and what an excellent night it was. It started with doing my thing to kick off the evening, before being followed by the lovely Ruth Royall (surprisingly without her trademark gloves) back from her tour of Germany, and then the incredibly talented Emily … Continue reading
I’ve had a lot of enquiries of late about how much I’d charge to commissioned a Cinemagraph for someone. Typically, it’s people wanting their short video turned into a stylishly animated art-piece for their website, and on the whole – assuming you have the video and it meets the criteria listed below, I’m happy to … Continue reading
