Virals - BBC Poetry; The King of Blues and Byron

From Academy Films' Corin Hardy, comes a stunning new BBC Poetry viral. Shot on the notoriously sensitive Red One, the slo-mo action takes place at Camden's Koko, with The King of Blues' Itch reciting Byron's 'So We’ll Go No More A-roving’ - a work previously covered by Lenoard Cohen and Joan Baez. With post by Smoke and Mirrors, the final offering is a slick and sassy, following fast in footsteps of past virals from the Poetry Season.

Movies - 'Shutter Island', Martin Scorsese, Leonado DiCaprio, Ben Kingsley, Emiliy Mortimer and Michelle Williams

Call me a sucker for a blockbuster, but Martin Scorsese's 'Shutter Island' looks like a edge of your seat, sock-it-to-me, killer of a movie. With stellar line up including Ben Kingsley, Leonardo DiCaprico, Emily Mortimer, and Michelle Williams, the film is based on Dennis Lehane's 2003 eponymous novel, with freaky-ass action taking place on an island for the 'criminally insane' back in 1954. Shot in Massachusetts (Medfield State Hospital), Connecticut, Nova Scotia, and Boston's Peddocks Island, the film is due for release in October, this year, while more recently, distribution rights are said to have reached the $8 million slot.

Commercials - Orange: 'Alien', Wanda Productions, Publicis, and Bryan Buckley

There's a slick lil' Orange campaign coming out in France this May. The trio of ads, which includes ‘Vampires’, ‘Gladiators’ and ‘Alien’ - the later being a genius piece of work if not for the line, “And no slobbering on the bed”, alongside cutesy appearances from Babe and a juggling Stuart Little - were produced by Bryan Buckley at Wanda Productions for Publicis Conseil, Paris. He's a director I’m fond of – his work always manages to make me chuckle; Dr Pepper’s 'Emergency', aka 'Butt Naked Boy', and American Express’ 'Animals' with Ellen DeGeneres deserve all the credit get. Super hit-on on You Tube, they are superb. Well. It's not surprisingly Buckley is a bit of an award-winner; in the past the Directors Guild of America have named him as Commercial Director of the Year, while in 2006, he was ranked No. 1 in the world for award-winning commercials. There’s more but, hey, you may as well just check the ads. Enjoy...
