A Gentle Touch

"A Gentle Touch" is an experimental video featuring the electronica sounds of Not Half. The sombre meditative music takes you on a fantastic journey through strange 3d-generated landscapes.

The "experimental" aspect comes from the 3d animations that make up the visuals; originally each clip was done to learn and test various things like particle animation, volumetric lighting, fog, water and so forth, and not actually created for the video. The animations were rendered back in 2002 and I did the video edit in 2005.

The edit files went corrupt in a harddrive mishap and the only existing version was a lo-res 352 x 240 animation in mpeg 1 format! We've always liked "A Gentle Touch", so we've cleaned it up and present it to you here! We hope you like it too! - Nik Poliwko

MUSIC VIDEO - Cadillac Bill and the Creeping Bent

BEING A HUMAN was shot back in the early 1990s for the Toronto band CADILLAC BILL & THE CREEPING BENT.

The video was directed by Culture Shock's John Temou while I provided the art direction and SFX. The interiors were all constructed at the music studio Q.E.D. Media where we shot most of the video.

Funded in part by VideoFact, we also had a run on MuchMusic at the time. It's a catchy tune! And a Fun video! And is that Neil Young? Enjoy! - Nik Poliwko
