Fox

Meet Fox Jagger. He likes to poo his pants and wail at his dad when he changes him. Heads or Tails is coming very soon.....so is another poo courtesy of the little one.

Heads Or Tails Is Close!

Yo yo!
Sorry for the blog neglect. It's been lock down in Mad Phil Media world as we try and get the edit done while juggling all the other stuff in life....Like an actual job! The good news is we are nearly there and the DVD will be available to buy at around the same time the "RISE" film festival starts touring NZ(bro)and Australia.
After good reports about the flick from the American Film Tour guys, we are hoping that the film will be well received in it's full version.
Hold tight and thanks for your patience.

The good news keeps on rolling for Heads or Tails with it now being officially selected to tour with the Rise fly fishing film tour. This tour will take Heads or Tails on a journey through New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and Europe. Yay! Click on the Gin-Clear Media link under friends for more info...Phil

A big thanks to the the Saltwater Flyrodders for having me at their meeting last night. Heads or Tails seemed to go down a treat, they even asked me to draw the raffle and they gave me a club hat...stoked! If you are in Western Australia and like to chuck feathers, click on the link under friends and get involved!

When you make a fly-fishing film this is a good thing to receive. We are still shaking our heads.

The Drake Fly Fishing Film Tour

Well, it's official. Heads or Tails has been selected to go on the big U.S tour and we are amped! For more details check out www.flyfishingfilmtour.com

Travis "Mizer" Moore

For those who follow this blog you may have noticed a couple of comments left by Travis Moore. One involved the words ass and hat and the other...well I forgot and can't be bothered going back and looking. Anyway, I thought I would show you all what this Travis "Fluffy" Moore guy looks like and, at the same time, show you what kind of hat he prefers. Sure it's not made of ass (though it is made of rabbit fur felt so I suppose some of that fur could have come from an ass cheek) but his face kinda looks like one.

What goes click click clack clack clack click click? Answer.....My hard-drive breaking..Ouuuuuuuuch it hurts so much mummy, it hurts so much! Fuck! What a stress. Lucky I have most things on my external drive. Though all my applications were on that stupid piece of crap! I have a new hard-drive now and am waiting patiently for Final Cut to install..And with a litttle bit of luck the I.T guy at my work can get the info I need out of old clickity clack...Fingers crossed..Fuck!

I am not a violent man (though once I pointed my finger at a man and said some bad stuff) but if I ever did get the feeling for a good old lynching, Apple's Compressor would be hanging from a tree. Unless of course I had a quad core and then it would be curled up next to me being stroked (not that kind) as it purred away......good kitty.

Simon Penn Caught a tuna.......That is all.

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!
