Knight of Cups Trailer

Straight off the bat, I'm a Malick fan. I got Tree of Life, I even enjoyed To the Wonder. However this, I really ain't sure. It's got to a stage where it's a parade of a pastiche. The eagle eyed of you will have noticed the first two images are from To The Wonder. 

It feels like a formulaic process of knowing what has been done before and recreating it with a very lose and slightly different plot and some great* actors.

In the same way all the greats have a style that can be replicated but of course never perfected. This however looks like a replication of a Malick film. 

At the end of the day it's just a trailer, for all we know big Terry may have a totally different film ready and all of this is on the floor.

We shall wait and see.

Moving from Wordpress to Blogger: Image size issues step by step guide

If you are like me and constantly change your blogging platform on a whim you will no doubt have images of varying sizes.
When moving from Blogger to Wordpress you can run a plugin that automatically re-sizes all the images, when moving the other way between Wordpress to Blogger there are not the same plugins.
Instead you have to add the custom CSS. How on earth do you do that ey? Well here is a step by step guide.

First of all open up your blog overview. Then on the left hand side menu select Template

Once Template is selected the above screen should appear, select Customize.

On the left hand side select Advanced, then scroll down to the bottom of the Advanced section and you should see Add CSS. This is where you add your code.

Below is the code I have used. This makes the max width an image in a post can be 600px and then the height will automatically change to fit the 600px width dimensions. You can change this to suit your template.

.post-body img { max-width:600px; height:auto; }

Hope this of help to anyone else with image re-sizing issues on blogger.

Wednesday Music : 03/12/14

Little bit of chill out from the West Midlands of all places to finish up a weird sort of Wednesday that seems to not want to die. Bibio fits into the influenced by Boards of Canada band wagon and this album Silver Wilkinson from last year is working nicely for me. Give it a wee listen.

The Glasgow Graffers

I like to imagine they compare and contrast spreadsheets. Then go crazy at some serious y and x axis.

MeetThe62 : A documentary project

After my blog regarding the fact only 62 people work full time in the Scottish film industry I have had a few interesting chats and tweets off people. A very interesting chat was had today with a colleague who said why don't you go meet them all and make a film about it. So that's where this ball starts rolling, I want to try and at least find these 62 people. So if you are working full time in the Scottish film industry please leave a comment or send me an email. If you are just generally interested feel free to contact me also.
