Brix – the teaser trailer
So, the week before Christmas, the fabulous Brix Smith-Start invited me up to her Shoreditch Start boutique to interview her. How did I get invited? Read this previous post to see the madness generated by a tweet!! Needless to say, I had an amazing afternoon! I ended up gate-crashing Start for 2 hours, trying my best to film without my nerves wobbling the camera too much. I came home with a few full memory cards of footage but I’m not the David Lynch I thought I was!
Things of Random Coolness and I have spent an age trawling through the “material” and with direction and annoyance from me, we’ve created a little trailer, that I LOVE (I know I’m probably not supposed to say that about my own stuff!) Now I’m worried that the trailer will be better than the actual interview, as my mouth ran away with me and I managed to talk over almost all of the footage!!! So enjoy – the full interview will be with you in the New Year. Music is by my fave band du jour The Drums and it was filmed on a Nikon D90. I hope Brix’s warmth and openness is evident in the trailer – you will gain more insight in the full interview…coming in 2010 (again that sounds full of “hype!” I hope you won’t be disappointed ;) This is my first foray into the world of video, hopefully there’ll be lots more to come. Here’s my Vimeo.
Also, remember to use Twitter, it can open doors! Follow me here @FashionCoolness.
WOW. You got mad skillz. You should see my first video, it was cack. You are so talented! Mind you, I already knew that from looking at your blog design. Well done, lady, can’t wait to see the whole thing.

Merci Mademoiselle Robot ;] Seduce away!! You are too kind. As I mentioned, I fear the actual interview may not be as exciting :S
