Our Bodyform video has been nominated for a 2013 Webby Award!
And while we are chuffed to bits with the nomination, there’s also a certain Mr Baumgartner standing in our way to this rather desirable paperweight.
So please, pretty please if you have any wish to see the underdog prevail vote for us here in the Webby People’s Voice Award.

Here’s a good old fashioned link dump to see you through your Friday.
1) The Worst Kid On Instagram (…and possibly the entire Internet)
Param, a wealthy 17 year old student who goes by the moniker ‘Lavish’ has the kind of spending habits that make most rappers look frugal.
Two saxophone players on the NY subway spontaneously start jamming, and it’s pretty great.
3) Cute Alert – Racoon plays sprinkler like a harp
I thought racoons were supposed to be kind of dangerous? This is just dangerously adorable.

Phew! What a week for highly anticipated sequels. Not only is there a new Pope, but we’ve just released the follow up to ‘The Motherhood’.
The film is about a dad who spends his evenings driving his children to sleep, in the film he looks back on his life before children and reminisces about a simpler time, when he was a new romantic in the 80s. In typical tongue in cheek retro style, there’s an outdoor backdrop, dry ice, pouty dancing, surreal visuals and… a unicorn.
Have you seen it yet? Check it out below.

Exciting news. Over the weekend the messy but very fun paintball film we made for Audi tipped over the 1 million view mark. We’re always excited to have something join the ‘double comma’ club, so we’re even more delighted to have got in there in under one week. We also picked up some more coverage, with the Mail Online posting the video too. If you haven’t seen it yet check it out here.
In the meantime. Here are some reaction gifs which pretty much sum up how we feel.

How can you better the rip-snorting fun to be had in an Audi RS4?
Mount paintball cannons on the bonnets and have a dogfight in a mothballed MOD fighter jet hangar, that’s how.
Corwin could not believe his luck when Audi UK green lit ‘The Duel’ and allowed us to modify their blisteringly powerful 2013 RS4 Avants with machine guns, paint slicks and paint grenades.
The two drivers, Jim and Colin, are arguably the most experienced stuntmen in the UK and have doubled for Luke Skywalker and Stormtroopers in the original Star Wars films. You can meet them here.
The film which launches on YouTube today was as much fun* to make as we hope it will be to watch.
[ *NB: cleaning up an aircraft hanger covered in paint is not so fun ;-7 ]
