Monster Blues

I have just got back from working with my brother, George on a wonderful video of us performing to the Seasick Steve song, 'I started out with nothing'. OK, we're only miming but I am really proud of the work we have done. Take a look below:




If you want to follow the link to youtube then you can see it in glorious definition. That's the way us monsters do the internet.

It's not easy filming when you are a monster. You often get bits of fur in the lens and have to start all over again. You might have heard them on film sets shout 'Check the Gate', that's to make sure no monsters have got it because otherwise they have to do all there filming again.

In the picture above I'm lining a shot up of George sitting by an amplifier. You can see the finished shot in our video.




Unfortunately, George's dog didn't like the camera very much and tried to attack it. We spent ages trying to get him off the camera lens. So today I learned how to make a video and how to upload it to youtube. George learned that he really does need to learn to control his dog. Woffy learned that camera lenses don't taste nice and don't steal your soul. Finally, we all learned that monsters can make films just as well as you humans can.
