Whip out your tissues as cyberpunkcafe.net is going bye-byes. At least the one you are used to looking at… I’ve decided that using my webspace to host a weblog which has been getting a steadily declining amount of traffic (and posts) is a waste of my time.
So as soon as I get around to it I’ll be swapping this place into my own portfolio/CV website. I’ll probably still have some kind of blog up here somewhere I guess but it will be focusing on work. (Which considering the last few months posts is probably no huge change).
Anyway this is your heads up. I’ll still blog the usual crap on myspace but as of now cyberpunkcafe.net has a whole new purpose.
Going home for an extended break in Scotland to try and sort my head out. 2006 was a mixed bag overall and I really need to take stock and figure out where my life is heading.
Am I an Artist? Am I a Filmmaker? Am I a Photographer? Am I a Videographer? Am I an Editor? Am I a Writer? Am I a Composer? Am I none of the above?
I don’t really know what I am, I have my fingers in so many pies that it’s like I don’t know where to concentrate my efforts. I think I have spent enough time being a jack of all trades and master of none. I know I need to start exhibiting and creating stuff with the intention of showing it off. This need is the driving force behind my existence.
But that isn’t all, I need to figure out the best way to go about achieving this. I’ve been doing freelance video production (mainly post-production) for the last year under the guise of ‘3angle films’ and although I have learned so much from this it’s really been hard work just to eke out a living. I thought that by becoming freelance I would have so much time to work on creative stuff but the truth is that what with having to do some much editing and video work I just don’t have any creative energy left over to work on my own stuff.
Then again a lot of the time I learn stuff because I have to learn it for work. I don’t know my head hurts and I’m all over the shop. Maybe that’s why I am just taking a break from it all for a while…
The other thing is what to do with this website. It is currently a blog but I want to turn it into some kind of delivery mechanism for my work and creative projects. Either way it will have to wait until I get the new 3angle films website up and running…
Help! Yeah, I’m still insanely busy although I did manage to get a couple of short one min films knocked out at the weekend along with larry of 3angle.
Check them out here….
Hot on the heels of the last 3angle films release “Trapped” comes this epic tale, (told in 2 minutes) of a young chap who is bored out of his tiny mind.
What mad japes can you expect in this caper I hear you ask? Well none to be honest its about boredom. Its shot by me cut by me scored by me and it stars um me. It was all done one boring afternoon, one boring summer back in boring 2003 on a boring webcam.
Prepare to be bored, Prepare for ‘Ennui’.
Ok after such an amazing intro I’m sure you are positively salivating over the prospect of so much meaty me-ness in one go so get your chompers round it kit and kaboodle right here
Alternatively just view it right here you lazy tripe wardens…
I just finished uploading the first 3angle films short ‘Trapped’ I’m all happy excited and well a bit demented really, but glad its finally finished.
Please sit back, relax and enjoy the internet premiere of our first short feature film, starring Catherine Cassell and Chris Philipps. Written and Directed by Lawrence Fisher, Produced by Tom Darlington, Shot by Robin Leck, Sound by Rhys Davies and Edited and Scored by Yours Truly.
