I really ought to update my journal more often, but i really don't have anything to write about. Anyway…

DeviantART has recently launched a film section (dispite consistently saying they wouldn't.) Currently, submittions are on an invite only basis, which, while annoying for some, will help to ensure quality content - at least in theory - until they open the flood gates… It certainly makes browsing much more fun.

With that, here, here are some of my favourites from DeviantART Film so far:

Starting off: [link] from deviantART itself (specifically, from $Moonbeam13) the excellent official ad for DA. I'm not sure if it's actually being/been run, but if it hasn't, it should be. Excellent concept, and great execution. (and awesome hair )

Next Up, Duet, by ~silvanderwoerd. The beginning is a tad mundane, but it soon evolves into an energetic (and unusual) duet of dance. I'll let you see for yourself…

The Artist's Model, by =MattCarter another moving piece. It's a hard job making someone empathise with a faceless, wooden doll, but Matt has, in my view, achieved that feat, through his use of music, and body movement, in this short film showing an artist's model in a stuggle to create art of his own…

Away from the serious films for now, Edward Blenderhands by *vayabobo is… well, it's just funny - see for yourself!

That's it for now… I'm really looking forward to seeing what the deviantART community has to offer in film, (and I'm also looking forward to the staff fixing the issue with the iPod compatable downloads…
