The No.3 Chris Gavin In The World

If you Google search on 'Chris Gavin', this site www.chrisgavin.com gets the number 3 ranking. One day I'll be the Chris Gavin king of all the Chris Gavins...

Test Screenings

I've been showing the short film 'evo' (still work in progress) to a few colleagues at Tandem Films recently. www.tandemfilms.com It's interesting to get some fresh eyes looking at something I've been working on in isolation for well over a year now. I've had a few valuable comments/suggestions that I'll try and absorb into the production. Thanks anyone who has offered help and advice... you know who you are...

What's Goin' On?

Keen-eyed visitors to www.chrisgavin.com will spot that after a splurge of activity updating the 'poematic' section with movies etc, activity seems to have now abated somewhat. The day job at Tandem Films has taken over again, with my fifth directing job for Sky TV! It's been promos up to now, but this job is more in the graphics area.
Of course work on my short film (now titled 'Evo') should have taken a bashing, but I've rather been spurred on to get this thing finished. The picture is now just a tad over two minutes, with no rough artwork anymore. It's almost at the stage at which I'll have another pass adding elements here and there, possibly for around the next month or two. On completion of the picture I'll have to dig back into my archives to fix the music, then think about a possible effects track too.
Still too early to call this thing done, but it feels like it's into the last push...
