Shinya Kimura

Saturday, August 14th, 2010

One day I hope to furthering my love of the open road form my ratty push bike into something with the love and craft of one Shinya Kimura’s steeds. One thing I always fine myself missing most form home and uni is a real workshop. I spent a lot of time as a kid on the farm buried in the workshop tinkering, and many in bike shops workshops over the years as well. Shinya sst up the legendary Zero Engineering in Japan then moved to the states to start Chabott Engineering creating some amazing masterpieces, one of my favourites being Hoon.

Above is a perfectly shot min doc. Filmed and director Henrik Hansen, it dose an amazing job of capturing the atmosphere of his workshop and the phenomenal focus of a man’s life passion.

The making off looks even better, seems like a mirical it got this far but should be out soon(ish) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKrS19D0VLU

David OReilly: Black Lake

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

David OReilly is a real favourite of mine with an amazing talent for producing technically and aesthetically stunning motion design. This new piece (a collaboration with Jon Klassen) is a more relaxing loop-able!!(right click on the player) exploration.

Please Check out some of his previous videos which are all mind bending: Szamar Madar for Venetian Snares, Wolf2106Please Say Something and ?????

Unfortunately today I heard I didn’t get a job I was so very close to getting, but never mind, was still a great experience, and their still keen to stay in contact. As result I thought I would take a brief brake and enjoy a true classic: The Big Lebowski.

Film very much enjoyed,  I head back to work only to find this in my inbox thanks to CR:

Another quick peek around on the webs and found this Youtube video, far less classy but very entertaining, (sorry, but I’m afraid it contains bikini models)
