Just by coincidence two different music videos that I was an extra in have both gone public today, even though they were filmed months apart.

Don't worry though- the filmmakers have, unbelievably, decided to focus on the pop stars and the scantily-clad dancers rather than get my ugly mug on camera. Also, the lighting is low- but if you know what I look like and know exactly where to look, I am there.

First it's an epic six-minute sci-fi adventure from McFly:

Then it's a raunchy Urban Astronauts video dripping in sexuality (naturally if you can't see me it's because of how well I fit in):

They were fun times but I wouldn't rave about the experience of being an extra. An awful lot of waiting and not a lot to show for it. Ricky Gervais had a point.

I've just had a quick chat with Bolex Brothers and am happy to hear that the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers movie is still in the pipeline. I can't give out any details but it is a good excuse to have another look at the trailer we made a few years ago.

Yes, I have a blog. I've been a bit negative about the whole blogging thing in the past, wondering whether the Internet will vanish under a billion pages detailing what every blogger had for breakfast, but having rejiggled my web site I've made a space for it. It remains to be seen whether it proves useful, but in the meantime, bandwagon here I come.
