To Build a Home
The short film To Build a Home (directed by Up the Resolution) is made from the music videos for two songs of The Cinematic Orchestra: To Build a Home and Breathe.
A beautiful song and a beautiful video. I’ll leave to the music and the images because there is really nothing I can add.
Watch it. (Flash Video)
Descendants
Two flowers (voiced by Whoopi Goldberg and Christy Scott Cashman) grow on the edge of a clearing next to one another. One is old and jaded by a mysterious history – the other one still young, vivid and curious. Destiny has brought these two together and it seems as if they would exist without possibility for change, until one day a visitor to the clearing brings something unexpected to their lives.
A short film written and directed by Heiko van der Scherm.

Google – Parisian Love
I have to admit, missed most of the Super Bowl and all of the ads that go along with the football. But I did catch the Google ad and it is a beauty. It is a triumph of story over all the technical wizardry that is usually showcased in Super Bowl ads.
