Film Tour Action

For the last few weeks we have been distracted. Distracted by the invitation to submit to the Fly Fishing Film Tour. And by submit we don't mean the, they have got us in some complicated arm lock and our elbows are about to be hyper exended submit. We mean submit as in hand in, apply or even enter kind of submit. We are nearly done too. The cut is done (11 minutes plus change) and we are in the process of developing titles (thanks Chad and Paris) before we upload that shit and hopefully get accepted. Fingers Crossed.

This is a picture of yours truly smiling while sitting at (what you could barely call) my editing suite. Notice the smile and somewhat relaxed deposition (is this the right word and/or spelling).....it is fake. This picture is nothing but a contrived moment that we (Neil Anderson was the photog) created when submitting lifestyle images for our article in This is Fly. Let the truth be known, that while editing can (and is) fun at times (read: when you first start and finally end) it is mainly a drawn out affair that finds you sick of excellent music and unhappy with perfectly good shots. Couple with this a computer that is no-where near as fast as you would like, long nights, a shortage of red wine and deadlines (generally self imposed and hugely flexible) and you start to wonder why you even got into the game......Because we love it? Because we are stupid? Or because we are crazy?........Let's just run with all of those...

How many roofs are there in the world? The answer would obviously be quite a high number. So I pose this question. What percentage of these roofs have been built with trades-people wearing Dunlop Volleys? Answer 99 percent....And the other one percent I hear you ask, what do they wear? They don't wear nothin, cause they broke there legs when they slipped off the roof while not wearing Volleys....Fools!

Don't ask me why it took so long to do this. I was off in lala land eating strawberry donuts.

DIAMONDS UNDER FIRE

Finding new music is cool. On a recent scout through the myspace unsigned pages we stumbled upon a gem. Diamonds Under Fire. We approached the brains and talent behind Diamonds Under Fire, Vanessa Silberman, to see if we could use her track "Redefining Deception" for heads or tails.....the answer was yes.... and we smiled.

SUCK A FISH AND DIE!

We got some props from a French dude called CYril on the Vimeo channel. Turns out he runs a cool website called http://www.lemouching.com/. I like this picture.

Here it is. Click the This is Fly link under friends (just up and to the right) and check it out. There is also a sweet article about north western permit by our own Simon Penn...Yes, that is right, he is ours now.
