It's been a while since I wrote last time so I thought I'd better put something up!
This was my small contribution to GoKinema this year...
...a Cylon scanner to this Ăźber cool robo statue - Cambot 3000.
Anders at Gothenburg Prop Makers made the fantastic robot and I helped him to give it "life"!
The bot is made from old film lamps, lenses, tripods, and old camcorders, it stood in the entry hall at Gothenburg Film Studios during GoKinema. Continue reading
