During the last while we have been designing and producing the poster and short animated promo for Trestle Unmasked’s upcoming production The Man with the Luggage.
Matt sorted the poster out and we all got together on the animated promo working on sound design, animation etc. in collaboration with The Man with the Luggage Director Oliver Jones of Blindeye Theatre.
We really like the initial bits we’ve created and are pleased to say that we will be working to produce the sound design for parts of the show itself.
anyhoo here’s the poster followed by a few process bits and then the animated short
Enjoy…
The poster itself.
Some circles.
Older version. Much darker and not in tune with the show really…
Our good friend Jack who stood in as ‘the man’. He wasn’t to happy about how many times we made him spin (it was quite early).
Another older test
Another-nother test…
Hand-made (digitally) ticket.
And finally – the new animated short promo.
The Man with the Luggage Animated Promo
Well well – here’s the ultimately interesting post telling you that we have moved! Yes, welcome to our new office at Trestle Arts Base – complete with lady lamp and a coffee table.
MARVEL! at the baldness of Jim! GASP! at Al’s cold, dead html eyes! and WET YOURSELF! in Bob’s general direction! YES.
For more info on what is on at Trestle Arts Base check out trestle.org.uk
We were asked to Rebrand Trestle Unmasked recently and this is what we came up with. It’s a combination of 2 designs one by Matt and one by Al melded together, and seems to work really well. Part of the brief was to try and embody the feel of trestle in the logo and I think, in the end, we got there…

Anyway – hope you like it
Finally we’ve put these old Lamfrag films up online in preparation for the new Lamfrag website. If you like dark, surreal, humour & elaborate sound design then you’ll like these. Anyway here’s Box a film that was finished back in 2008 and showed in a few festivals including The Cambridge Film Festival & London Short Film Festival.

Well, well… it’s taken a while but we’ve blocked out the light, closed the doors & ventured down into the depths of our noise making basement (and laundry), and finally finished it. Actually that’s a lie; we’ve still got a few things to plug in and will consume at least 12 cups of tea before its all functional (and frankly, the 3 legged monstrosity we’ve made out of random bits of wood we’re calling a table isn’t up to much – although its good to put my old autoharp on).
It’s also a chance to give our recently acquired Novation A-station synth a whirl… looks like an interesting piece of kit – although it doesn’t have the lovelyness of a true analogue synth, it sure as hell has the potential to make some left field sounds. I’m interested in using it’s input capabilities to feed some rotten samples in from an Akai X7000 – true 80’s mess. Hopefully we’ll have some stuff to show you soon. Also looking forward to listening to the new Autechre Album “Oversteps” on vinyl down there – which you must
buy.
