http://www.a3film.com - Planet 51 is a galactic sized animated alien adventure comedy revolving around American astronaut Captain Charles "Chuck" Baker, who lands on Planet 51 thinking he's the first person to step foot on it. To his surprise, he finds that this planet is inhabited by little green people who are happily living in a white picket fence world reminiscent of a cheerfully innocent 1950s America, and whose only fear is that it will be overrun by alien invaders...like Chuck! With the help of his robot companion "Rover" and his new friend Lem, Chuck must navigate his way through the dazzling, but bewildering, landscape of Planet 51 in order to escape becoming a permanent part of the Planet 51 Alien Invaders Space Museum.

The project reflects on urgent matters concerning our lifestyle, throwaway society and cultural intolerance/ignorance. It discusses in which directions the world will possibly develop, which relationships/communities are about to be created in context to different perceptions of environmental sustainability and climate change. What does it mean to protect and keep things how they are? Is it necessary to destroy, to form something new? SUEX creates an immersive platform to distinguish a change of thinking, a shifting of accommodated world conception. The viewer is suddenly confronted with language barriers (in the sound composition) and an “unwanted” identification with thoughtless consuming pattern in the video images that address the importance of nature as the main source of life. Presented at ARTECH08, University of Porto/Portugal. 2007/08 - SUEX english 06:40 min, SUEX japanese 09:20 min, SUEX hebrew 07:57 min, SUEX noongar 05:30 min. (Less)

We are always thinking of new ways to keep our cats entertained at the sanctuary, this year we decided to give them easter eggs to see how they'd react!

They had a mixed reaction but overall the cats enjoyed their eggs and we think it was an egg-cellent idea!

Enrichment is very important for captive animals, we make lots of different items for our cats to stimulate natural behaviors and give them something to do.

Thanks for watching and if you'd like to find out more please visit our website:

Xcorps Action Sports Show #23.) "XBIKE" - seg.4 - This Xcorps action sports episode rips the snow - So Cal style - with guest host Rat Sult and 12 others riding the next wave of snow bikes - the Winter X bike and Slopecycle - on the sunny slopes of Mt. Baldy located only 45 miles from Los Angeles. http://www.mtbaldy.com/
The show opens in Washington D.C at the Lincoln memorial with Xcorps X Guru host Eric Ducharme shooting for an upcoming episode. See what fun unique sport will be featured.
Segment one opens with Eric touring D.C. and throwing it back to California where Rat and a dozen other adrenalized speed junkies are carving down the slopes of the 10,064 foot Mt.Baldy near Upland California on snowbikes. This is the second time the Xcorps cams have focused on this cool new sport-which is allowed only on a select few forward thinking ski resorts here in the U.S. Thanks Mt.Baldy-Robbie Ellingson for your grooviness. The Xcams follow the action POV style with warm spring conditions requiring only T-shirts on the Xbike and Slopecycle riders. See BMX pro Brian Stuart AKA 'Bubba' go insanely big on the Winter X Bike - the new way to slide the slopes. See what it takes to convert any bicycle into a snow bike using the simple kit available at http://www.winterxbike.com/.

After the break Rat shows up at the top of Mt. Baldy this time riding a Slopecycle - a new cross up between a BMX bike and a snowboard. http://www.slopecycle.com/ Remember you saw it 1st on Xcorps! Lots of sweet rides and big crashes here edited with a very cool cinematic style music video from the Maverick Records band the Deftones doing their hauntingly powerful song Minerva. Keystone Colorado ski patrol member Josh Thompson talks about what the Slopecycle is all about and how easy it is to ride. After that Prodigy pumps their new song SpitFire with Rat and the X gang carving it up and hucking big! See the biggest crash of the day caught by Xcorps cams with even more action this time cut with a new music video from GoldFinger doing their song Wasted.
Big mosh pit shots here!
The show wraps with Tantric doing their song Breakdown and Bubba stepping up with a few more airborne moves along with a quick look at Eric the XGURU throwing some Disc Golf from the next episode of Xcorps coming soon. Additional music by Stutterfly.

The video was envisioned and created by the collaborative team of myself and Drew Cox, who conceived, shot, edited and created the entire film, with full music production and performance being carried out by James Powell and Pete Devlin.

The brief of the project was to create a video that encapsulated both the Do-It-Yourself nature of the project as well as visualising its experimental fun and excitement.

Using all ‘real people, garments, textures and textiles from the Oxfam stores’ the video set out to employ a hybrid of creative techniques, from stop frame animation to organic textures and clothing, super 8 footage and photography. Music was specifically created and recorded from scratch to encapsulate the rawness and individuality of the footage.

We firstly set out to film over 30 people, all compiled from a mix of street castings in the London area. These people were then all shot interacting with each other in a range of different environments and studio space.

All the footage was then rotoscoped, to cut out each individual frame of each character and then composited in an array of different landscapes to create a multi layered, evolving environment, consisting of cut out fabrics, garments, textiles, paper cut outs, cardboard, coloured pens, page tears, stop frame photography and motion graphics.

The video encompasses the entire thinking and creation behind Oxfam DIY in its approach, stylistic vision and execution. (Less)
