  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

GREG WILLIAMS - BIONIC

Being a big fan of gynoids (it's what my shorts and current feature I'm writing are completely based on) I was very interested to see this.

Imagine my surprise when I saw a bunch of very similar elements and shots to my "Birth" short from 2006 in film school!

Here's the vimeo link to my little effort (shot on the JVC HD-GY101E for a little over AUD$1,000 of which half went to renting the camera from Panavision and the other half went into building the set and feeding the crew pizza!):

I wonder if Greg somehow saw "Birth" and used that as inspiration (it would be cool if he did!). After all, I'm similarly inspired by other efforts in the genre :)

Of course Greg's much more professional effort ends up going in a different direction (and is focused on sexy vs mine being focused on emotion) more along the lines of "The Fifth Element" Leeloo escape scene.

Anyway, I thought it was an interesting juxtaposition between watching "Bionic" and "Birth"! Hope you enjoy it too.

Cheers from Tokyo,

Paul :)
