A film by Ashlyn Anstee -- You can see more of my art and films over at my blog (ashlyna.blogspot.com). This film-animatic-storyreel thing was made using hand drawn boards, and put together in a variety of digital programs. I started this project as a fun side bit while working on my thesis film, but like all good projects, it got away from me.

Music: "This Train Will Be Taking No Passengers" by Augie March, off of their beautiful album "Strange Bird". You can find this track, and most of their music, on iTunes. You should definitely go and take a listen, they have made some fantastic music. You can check out their facebook (collective facesbook?) over here (http://www.facebook.com/augiemarch).

Speaking of excellent music, Glenn Richards has just released a solo album, "Glimjack". If you're in Oz, you should definitely see if he's playing near you sometime soon. (http://www.glennrichards.com.au/) is where he lives, and you can also find him in facebookland over here (http://www.facebook.com/glennrichardsmusic).

Thanks for all the support, friends!

  • one of the best song i ever saw perfomed live!

  • @stavrotat2 ooh, jealous! i'm stateside so i've never seen them live.

  • Stumbled across this per chance. This perfectly fits this song. I think this has some of the greatest lyrics ever and the video matches a beaut. Well done mysterious internet stranger.

  • @twoverend Aw, thanks! It's such a great song that it was a blast to draw things to go with it :) Glad you stumbled upon it.

  • Fantastic job!

    

  • Well done. Just to point it out in case those who are "stateside" are unaware, this song is about Australia's immigration policy, referring in particular to our treatment of refugees, under the then Howard and now Gilard government. Absolutely spectacular song, one of my all time favourites, good clip to go with it. Not a subject for Australians to be proud of however.

  • Ha! love the ending. :P

  • So awesome! I like the part where the train driver is nervously pulling the cord to make the train whistle with the robbers all around him.

  • Wow, fantastic work as per norm Ash!
