Site Update

Just to let you know the reason why this blog is not getting updated is because i have been made redundant and decided to start my own design agency.

I have been a designer for well over 5 years, working on many top film licenses, i was responsible for the branding and promotion and indeed the art direction for the Star Wars Celebration Europe event held in London back in 2007.

I have worked on Products from the Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Wars Classic, Star Wars Episode 3, UFO, Marvel Heroes, Fantastic Four Movie, Superman Returns, Batman Begins, Power Rangers to name a few.

I designed the massive Death Star inflatible in Celebration Europe and Celebration 4 in the US.

It is sad that i am no longer involved in this directly, and have designed some wonderful product over my years, i have met some amazing people, i have met some great celebrities, the highlight being talking about iPods with Elijah Wood on the top of a shopping Center in Milton Keynes. I have also met the Genius that was Gino from Weta, hell i've even met Luke Skywalker.

My new agency will focus on branding, design, web and promotion with any product design i can get my hands on. for more info head to our site www.sansdeputy.com

You can also see some of our portfolio work on sansdeputy.com or more on www.witchu.co.uk

Available for design work, please email mike@sansdeputy.com for a quote.

I have a huge passion for film, and would love to carry on this blog someday. But there are far better dedicated sites out there, but who knows what the future holds.

Xbox 360 with Blu-Ray Drive in the Works?

Engadget believe so...

Two years and 1 month ago today we saw the kibosh come down on the Xbox 360 Blu-ray player rumor. This morning it returns with the prospect of a Microsoft player as early as May. According to Smarthouse, their "insiders at Microsoft" claim that a standalone Blu-ray player is already working in-house. With the appropriate approvals it could be on sale within 3 months. A 360 with built-in Blu-ray is also being worked on although the possibility of moving it out to retail is less clear with HD downloads on the horizon. Not that any of this is unexpected given the circumstances. We never expected Microsoft to go down with the HD DVD ship -- they're just passengers on this ill-fated voyage, not the captains.
