mo-meds trailer


What is Mo-Meds?
Mo-Meds is a blog site especially for one minute films videos and more importantly experiments. All the work is made by year 9 students with the idea that it will be shared, via bluetooth, downloaded on mobile devices, even perhaps then re-edited. The aim being to educate as well as entertain using the equipment (mobile phones, ipod's, mp4 devices) that many have with them all the time. Looe Community School & Performing Arts College, Cornwall.

playing with film (for mobile devices)


For quite some time now I have been really interested in the way people use ipod's/iPhone's and other small portable sound and audio devices. I have been playing it was a slow day and I the things I had planned didn't happen so I looked for some film stuff to create a piece designed for ipod. Yes I know the aspect ratio changes during the cross dissolve but it was an hours play time between other stuff, the music is not mine but credited and legal.
Please watch it, better still download it (real player downloader will do it) watch it on your ipod or here with the sound up it doesn't pretend to be anything, and yes it's a bit cheesy but that is sort of intended & tell me what you think. I will do some more and set up a proper download section soon.
I see a real market for straight to ipod films. I plan to make a few more with the idea of mood changing films. A minute or two long to relax before sleep, or an important meeting or wake up before going to see the bank to ask for your money back!

brainfood

picture courtesy howies

over the past few weeks the term 'brainfood' has come make to my attention again, hardly a new term I realise. Today though I like the term, it seems fashionable again mainly I think for me anyway through the different and very positive outlook from the clothes company Howies and their brainfood blog.
rhona at excess energy communications used the term in conversation last week good to get me thinking again, we have to keep feeding the knowledge base.
