Am I Getting Old?

Walking the streets of Thessaloniki (2nd largest city in Greece) I noticed this sign in a shop window. I can't help but wonder (in classic Carrie fashion), is advertising getting too blatant or am I getting too old, which would explain why I notice these things more often than I used to?

On The Lot Intro

This is my Intro Video Submission for the "On The Lot" Film-making Reality Show, 2007 version. I wrote, directed and produced this video. And it is of course based on my favourite movie of all time, the first film I ever saw @ the cinema: E.T. - The Extra Terrestrial.

Aris Zaglis was the animator, Dinos Mahairas the DOP, Marios Takoushis did the music, Thanos Tsamis did the editing & sound design, Giota Serafetinoglou the make-up, while Katerina Vlastari was my AD.

I am a terrible actor, I know. Please try not to bring it up... Thanks. :-)

Chocolate Mousse vs Me = 1-0.

Yes. I know.

Cult Icon

Me.
Dressed up.
Here's looking @ you kid.
Whatever that means.

I Will Always Love You

If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way

I will always love you
I will always love you

Bitter sweet memories
That is all I'm taking with me
So goodbye, please don't cry
We both know I'm not what you need

I will always love you
I will always love you

I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you dreamed of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all this I wish you love

I will always love you
I will always love you

Love Generation Intro

This is the intro sequence I wrote and directed for a TV game show. I collaborated with an animator and a cartoonist to get the final result. We were given only a week to complete the project, before the show was to be on air.

Microsoft Photosynth

This is a new software (not released quite yet) that takes a large collection of photos of a place or object, analyzes them for similarities, and displays them in a reconstructed 3-Dimensional space

You can find out more (and watch some videos) here:

It could be the future arriving now, in a way we thought it could happen, but not quite expected. I am pretty excited about it.

YouTube

I just discovered YouTube.
And of course created a profile there.

The website is too cool and you can end up spending weeks checking it out, unless you manage to bring yourself to turn off your PC.

Fab.

Of course I could not resist being silly about it.

URSULA LIVES!

Remember Ursula, the 'lovely' Octopus Witch of Little Mermaid fame?
Well I found her. She has temporarily taken the form of a human grandma on the Greek island of Serifos, at a taverna by the sea, threatening a young boy of around 5 years old to eat meatballs, or else a terrible fate would await him. I dared not try and find out what that fate would be, because as I glanced at her, and the look of recognition came upon my face, I swear I felt my voice getting stolen from me for a short while... God only knows how I escaped with my life, as I tried to take these documentary pictures... for posterity. So next time some wise-ass tells you "It's ONLY a movie, don't be scared!" well... I suggest you run for your life.

I know I did.

Serifos 2006

(See... it started out as a paradise on earth.)

(Dafne was happy.)

(Bobos was happy too.)

(Katerina was very happy, when we went to the old mines.)

(The mines were amazing, so I was happy too.)

(Then I tried to take THAT photo.)

(But then I suddenly fell into a pit. Didn't hurt. Much.)

(Night came, and I was left alone. Of course I was brave.)

(And obviously it did wonders for my pcychological state.)

(But then I was saved, and saw the divine beach again.)

(So naturally I was once again happyl.)
