Surreal Exterior Studio Sets.

Naturalism is so dominant in commercials at the moment it is getting a little dull. Interior for Exterior studio sets create an eery dream-like dissonance that really gets inside your head. I have collected examples from The Bride of Frankentstein, Lemony Snickett and Night of the Hunter.

The trick to writing a compelling narrative is so simple it is often overlooked: invent a character that the reader likes and make nasty or dangerous things happen to him or her.

Teleconference Bad, Skype Good!

Teleconferencing often feels like you’ve been sitting in a well, while people stand round kicking things down at you. A large portion of the subtle communication of a good jam session is non-verbal, you need to see a face to see how people are “feeling it”. So get video skyping, it is now highly reliable, easy and works in most corporate settings. Download it now. If you need some help this hilarious 5 year old can show you how to sign up (4mins). For the full run down on features like sharing your screen you need a nerd. Skype me: Nathanprice
