New Proving Ground Album

The music promos I produced for Proving Ground have appeared on this site, so it might have created some PG fans among you. So you might like to know that Proving Ground has released the new Anthology Collection. It features a whopping 7 albums of music- pretty stonking good value! Visit the site for everything you need to know!

Fancy Dress

As you may have noticed MPZ has put on it's Halloween costume ready for the weekend. Hope you get a kick out of it! Have a good night and don't let the zombies get you!

Yarr! Today be International Talk Like A Pirate Day. Every yarr on this day the scurvy dogs that run this here landlubbin' webship like to mark the occasion! So for this weekend Monkey Pirate Zombie becomes Pirate Pirate Pirate. Yarr! We've hoisted the banner. And a happy Pirate Day to all you Landlubbers out there!


P.S. Yarrrrrrrrrrr!

Strangely familiar?

Waaaay back in 2005, I produced Trailer Trash IV, a little piece called Sense and Sensibility and Zombies- combining period drama with zombie movie at last. Fast forward to today when I learn (via Slashfilm) that a book called Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is to be released in April and that Hollywood producers are allegedly fighting for the rights. It's probably unlikely that the author of the mash up book has ever seen my animation or ever heard of monkey pirate zombie (the Internet is an awful big place) but it does seem like a pretty big coincidence. Even if I did think it was a rip-off there wouldn't really be anything much I could do about it, so I'm just going to have to assume it's a big ol' coincidence. And it would make an awesome movie. However I'll be watching out. If this guy's next project is Leprocop, there will be trouble!

Ch-ch-changes

I have made some modifications to a couple of sections of the site as part of the steadily progressing redesign. The contact page and podcast page have been replaced with slightly shinier versions that fit in with the new look. I've made a major breakthrough in terms of making the redesign, which means it shouldn't be held up much longer. I'll fill you in as it progresses.

Thanks are in order...

So, thanks to an email I got yesterday, I discovered that Monkey Pirate Zombie TV (our podcast) is listed on the directory site podcast.com, so is now available from 4 different places (podbean.com, itunes and directly from the site, and now podcast.com). You can see it here. The thing is, I never added it to the site, so it would appear that some fantastically kind soul did it for me. I'd love to be able to thank them personally, so if you did it, and you're reading it now, please email me right away! It's great to know that there's someone out there helping the site out! You guys rock!

As part of the ongoing redesign of the site I have added a new feature called Snap-Shots. Both here and on the blog, if you hover over a link you get a little bubble pop up that previews the page. Try it out! What do you think? Useful or a pain in the arse? Let me know!

YARR!

It be that time of yarr again landlubbers!




















Wishing you all a jolly International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Don't forget to both shiver your timbers and splice your mainbraces, or I'll make you walk the plank. Yarr!
