make love not warhol



From the outset this was going to be a challenge,
a challenge because almost every aspect of this seemed
to be the polar opposite to everything i had done in the
past . for starters , it was purely performance , it was
drenched almost drowned in colour and most importantly
noone seemed to be walking anywhere or going on some
trumped up spiritual journey..

so i felt very much outof my comfort zone ..
but as it turns out it was one of my most
comfortable shoots of all..shot with an old mate
and in his house against a green screen we took our time ,
bonded , played mortal kombat and ate bad mall food for
two days straight..it felt more like hanging out than making
a video..but of course ..then comes post production.







the cherry on top of this technicolour dessert was
having fellow video maker edward watson play andy
warhol..seeing him dressed as the father of pop art
was such a sheer delight ..





Here is a sneak peek of screen grabs i have
taken while doing the fx and post production









so as it stands at time of this blog im about
half way through post production and the sense
of fun and experimentation is still in the air..
so the moral kids..maybe step out of that comfort
zone once in a while..
