09 The Kidnap?

This video was was written and filmed in a 24 hour period (usually we work on the script at least a week before making them, so this was very last minute). The script was originally about a simple kidnapping but since it had been written in a hurry there were a few flaw in it, as the acting began the story took a slightly different turn.

We also didn't put much thought into the problems we could have with such a location, we were standing right next to a large pipe that looked (and sounded) suspiciously like a sewage pipe. Sure enough while we were filming the pipe would periodically flush.

08 Super Sheep

After watching Alice's incredible man-woman Sophie felt that she too wanted to branch out and be a little bit different and so Super-Sheep is born!

It is true that the reason Sophie has this fully body sheep outfit is because she found it on sale one day and couldn't resist. What the video doesn't say is that Sophie found the sheep outfit in the children's section of the Te Papa gift store, and decided it would be appropriate to try it on (over her clothes) in the middle of the store. Needless to say the kids were impressed, the mothers were not.

07 Avant-garde

Beware, the title of this one may be a little misleading. Avant-garde was written by Alice and is based on some footage that was filmed some years ago.




Warning - please watch the video before reading this as it may contain traces of spoilers. The strange footage of Alice dancing originated from an idea that Alice and a friend had many years ago at an age too young to be disclosed about a Boy-Girl growing up to be a Man-Woman. This man-woman then spends his-her days going door to door asking people if they prefer men or woman, the footage is of Alice playing that character.

Edit - the observant watchers may notice there is a spelling mistake in this video, it has been noted and the responsible parties will be having a spelling test before the next one.
