... with a fringe on top!

I just uploaded one of my VJ mixes to the Melbourne Digital Fringe site, which is part of the larger Melbourne Fringe Festival. The animation is here. It just got "approved by the content moderator" so now it's live.

I was involved in the Digital Fringe a couple of years ago when, with Animation Club!!!, when we took the MPU, Mobile Projection Unit, a van with a projector on top that streamed to the internet. We took it around Melbourne projecting onto various buildings including Federation Square. Here is a video from that time.


I am looking forward to the Digital Fringe Festival this year but not pleased that I won't be in Melbourne and will have to miss it.


Edit: Another of my VJ mixes is now up on the site here. This one is about urban signage.

HiDefZoMo

I have been playing around with the animation sites that I subscribed to and I am really enjoying Mytoons. They let me post .swf files, interactive and non. I can also post there in High Def Wide Screen. Seen below is the most wasteful use of High Def. Although it is much better quality than on youtube. I have got heaps more hits at Mytoons than at Aniboom and am featured on two Mytoons "channels".



I also registered and uploaded some movies to the not yet opened 4mations.tv site. It seems to be a site for animations for the channel 4 tv station in Britain. Since their logo appears to be winged skulls with bunny rabbits hopping out I think they will appreciate my weird animations.
