Trick - Another Halloween Short

Here's a Halloween short Louis did the animation for quite a while back for Will Rot. Probably best not show you kids this one - not the last 20 seconds in any case. Make that 30 seconds, sorry eyes.

For some real advice on HOW to be Halloween Fabulous, read Ian's sage words of advice.

Popcorn Comedy comes to Brum!

That's right, Popcorn Comedy, a comedy night dedicated to bringing you the funniest online videos and stand up, is coming to Birmingham Comedy Festival!

We'll be presenting the opening night of Popcorn Comedy Birmingham at Britain's oldest working cinema The Electric on Monday 5th October at 8.30pm, featuring the rap/stand up stylings of Doc Brown and the wonderful Holly Walsh live on stage, as well as a selection of the newest and funniest videos from the web in glorious high resolution.

We should also be premiering a brand new video on the night too, so keep your eyes peeled for that. Popcorn is sponsored by the good people at Hello Digital.

Tickets are only £6 each. Order here: http://www.theelectric.co.uk/booking/book.php?date=1453

Here's some quotes about Popcorn Comedy if you're not already convinced:

"Popcorn Comedy does the hard work for us, offering a monthly selection of the strongest, sharpest and funniest videos online. And instead of the usual 320 by 240

pixels, here they’ll be transposed to the altogether more satisfying platform of a full-size cinema screen, and mixed with live performances."
The Guardian

"Popcorn is such a good idea you almost can’t believe it’s the only club like it."
Spoonfed.co.uk

"I haven’t been to a better comedy night for yonks and yonks. It is that good."
Robert Popper

It's near New Street Station and pretty much next door to the Old Rep Theatre if you don't know it.

Chat Up Lines - Behind the Scenes

Here's some behind the scenes shots, while I edit our latest live sketch. Yep, that's me with a whole lorra wax. It took about 5 washes with Fairy Liquid to get rid that muck, as proven by me sporting the 'Dandy Geldof' after wash 3.


Bit of trivia: Tom and I share the same sweaty shirt throughout.
