It's Raining Dogs and Lice

Well, no chance of a slow down here. Busy planning (oops can't reveal that yet) and also (oops not this either) whilst Mike Stringer, Prosthetic Designer and all round Taskmaster has been busy whipping the workshop into a frenzy, making Bayonets, Rubber Lugers and creating a full scale 'Louse' Costume for a TV commerical.





Oh, and he also created a rather interesting silicone paint mix that was thrown against a rather nice old Jaguar for 'Heartbeat' to simulate paint vandalism. I think he had a few sweaty moments about it but the 'paint' peeled right off with no damage!


As it's our 10th year of being in this strange business, expect some interesting posts soon, once the dust settles down (literally), we will reveal all.


Viewing wise I recommend trying to catch the next series of 'Anonymous' (as below), I have seen the preview tapes and the setups, celebrities and reveals are top grade. Really excellent work by Mike and Mark, who ran the on set crew in Ireland.


We also received in the post the short idents used at Christmas for 'More 4's Santa' skits. Hopefully we will be able to get them up on the website for download, they are seriously funny. They can be found on 'You Tube' if you look around.


The 'Fey Cross' novel is progressing rapidly and a website hopefully will be up at some stage.
