Max Cooper - Circular by Páraic Mc Gloughlin

Stream/download 'Yearning for the Infinite': https://ift.tt/2NYiIIQ Páraic McGloughlin: I've had the idea to make some type of version of this video for about ten years, for whatever reason I haven't had the chance to get it done until now. When I heard 'Circular' for the first time and read the statement about it, as well as the combined ideas for 'Yearning for the infinite', I immediately thought that this is a place where this video idea could work. After some discussion with Max we got going on it.. This project was definitely a labour of love and I enjoyed every bit of it! The idea for the video initially came from a thought about Obsession (the vicious cycle.) I think we often find ourselves getting caught up in routines, letting small problems become unnecessarily overwhelming and consuming so much of our time.It seems so easy to let this happen. At the same time I think it is often some form of obsession that drives people to do what they love, find people they love etc, it's quite a strange old thing... Using the Circle as a symbol of an inescapable and never ending notion, I tried to evoke a feeling of the infinite, and the idea of a reoccurring and self made predicament... I used circles as the main subject matter as circles have an infinite symmetry, they can be rotated by any amount and always look the same, they’re the only 2D shape with infinite symmetry. It's amazing how a simple circle can be so complicated! I suppose there is a reason why the circle is one of the classic representations of infinity. Also I really love the shape:) The video required quite a bit of planning, location hunting and measuring things up etc. I had a nice surprise with how much I enjoyed being out (mainly on my own) painting huge circles on the quiet barren terrain, much more fun than it sounds:). (for me) A huge thanks to my Dad who actually took on a role as a Grip! Thanks to my brother Kevin for helping with shooting! Thanks so much to Max Cooper for involving me in this project. Max Cooper: The circle with its infinite degrees of rotational symmetry, endless path structure, and seemingly endless statistically random digits of pi, was a key visual form in the project where I was looking for ways to visualise the infinite. Paraic McGloughlin had a great idea for bringing in the human side of the story as well, with his human stuck in their loop with a touch of insanity about the whole thing. I love the balance between the delivery of the concept and the surrounding scenes, like the two shouldn't be combined, but somehow it turns out beautifully. I went for a curving form of musical structure. A slow and smooth melodic pulse which had its own rhythm, but which I could also play at my own pace. It just seemed to embody circular form to me, hopefully you can hear what I’m talking about! With this in place I set about making my first almost entirely improvised piece of music, I think I only added a single bass and pad element, and a couple of sound design additions to complete it after extracting the entire piece as a live recording. This gives it a much more fluid structure and melodic form than is normal for my music, which is one of the main differences throughout the album from those which have come previously. It was certainly a nice way to work on a personal level, and something I’m continuing to explore. Paraic has delivered something of a masterpiece for his visual interpretation. Something like 170 hand drawn circles of epic proportion telling the story of human obsession quite literally as well as metaphorically. It puts a big smile on my face to see this, hats off to Paraic McGloughlin and Kevin McGloughlin for their beautiful art and for allowing me to be part of it.

Office Cat and Fish - Time For Coffee by Monkey Tennis Animation Studio

These two unlikely colleagues are sitting in the office doing over-hours. Bored and frustrated by a software that keeps crashing only a strong cup of coffee can help now… We highly enjoyed working on Office Cat & Fish and it quickly became a darling project of the studio. It was as well a great project to test our fur setup, and bring that to a level we were happy with. A tactile feel of the characters was very important for us. Team: Monkey Tennis (Mikkel Okholm, Frederik Storm, Adrian Walt, Ian Otto), Victoria Durand, Geoffrey Rakotoarisoa, Edith Bach & Pedro Ivo Carvalho. Thanks to the Open Workshop, Thomas Richard for Sound Design and Laura Büchert Schjødt for doing the cat sounds.

The Idea by Blue Zoo

As part of our long-running short films initiative, we pitched the question to our team "Can you visualise the frustrations of the creative process?" So we organised some brainstorming sessions on the problems with brainstorming sessions, had committee meetings on the pains of design by committee, and bounced ideas around about how we bounce ideas around. Embracing a minimal design language to focus on the characterisation, we created a short film which is a montage of relatable scenarios for the creative professional. Big thanks to Box of Toys Audio for the music and audio
