Dear Green Thing, if you wrap a granny, do you need to use porous wrapping paper? Regards, Janet Mapplethorpe. Dear Janet, the granny is meant as a metaphor for an old phone or ipod or typewriter or book or jacket or hat or long playing record, but if you do want to give a granny for Xmas, yes, use porous wrapping paper. Love from Green Thing. by Ben and Greg of Partizan London
By Michael Wright To illustrate the considerable dangers of lifts, Michael Wright not only reused some old bits of polyboard and silver spray to make a skyscraper, lift shaft and lift, he reused some old bits of airfix for the props, two old marionettes to be the lift victims and one of those victims to be the evil lift-cord cutter. The result: a tremendous piece of psychological insight about lifts and why you should doubt them big time. Music by the very talented Aaron Paul Low of Sacred noise, produced by the very kind Partizan.

Do the Green Thing - Glow-in-the-dark Thing
Written by the kind and talented people at TBWA London (tbwa-london.com) and directed by Matt Lipsey (feelfilms.co.uk/ml1.html) of Little Britain fame, this video shows the lengths one man is prepared to go to in his quest to have fun in the dark. Special effects? Naah. The man studied appendage dance and mime for a year so he could do those amazing things with his Green Thing. Try them them at home, but be careful.
If you turn your lights off and look at it, the night sky is basically one giant dot-to-dot. The ancients joined those dots to make things they thought were important such as water-carriers and lions. Green Thing has joined up those dots to make things that are far more important today -- things like salty snacks and great Arsenal goals. Created by Steven "Carl Sagan" Qua (http://www.squa.co.uk/) and voiced by Daniel "Patrick Moore" Lapaine, (http://www.geocities.com/stagescreen200 1/danielgallery.html) this video is truly universal -- unless you support Manchester United.
I wanted to make walking fun. For it to look effortless, adventurous and romantic - but all through a pair of fingers. So the search for the right pair of fingers began. I auditioned more than two hundred pairs. Film and TV stars were asking to play the role but they were acting too much with it. Finally I found the right pair on a man called Justin. The lady fingers are Helen's, she's the H in HLA, the production company who made it all happen. Myself and a fine chap called Dominic made all the sets with paper, scissors and sticky-back plastic. Hope you like the video, and hope it makes you want to walk ... Danny Cohen
