Back from a bandwidth Holiday

We've been stopped from bringing you the world's most varied collection of short films lately by being too darn popular. Films have been downloaded from right across the planet and we hit the inevitable bandwidth shortage. You can see from the map just where the films were being seen, and we were glad that everyone across the planet loved them so much. Thousands of people have enjoyed the movies on Planet01.tv so far..

Having solved the problem now, we're back with more films, from everywhere across the planet.

Send your video, and see you on Planet01.tv.

Yours,

Ben Baker
Editor, Planet01.tv

The Fortune Telling Doll

A light-hearted take on a Japanese folktale. Bob thinks he's dreaming when a wooden doll starts talking to him, until it gives him some handy advice on where to meet women. But the doll turns out to be one of those friends that you just can't get rid of, and keeps Bob awake with its constant yapping. When Bob tries to end the relationship, the doll uses its powers to strike back with devastating consequences, and continues to subject him to an unending verbal assault. A broken man, Bob eventually finds a solution to his predicament from a pillar of the community.

-P01.12 London: Inside Us All


Inside Us All

This is the winning entry from the Diesel music VJ award 2005. The London based VJ collective Inside Us All have been performing at home and abroad since 2000. Recent performances have included the Synergy Project, London and Elevate Nightclub in New Dehli.

Inside Us All's visuals cover a range of styles- they use self shot video, 3D, stop frame animations and techniques known only to themselves. This sequence is part homage, part mashup of Metropolis, Fritz Lang's nightmarish vision of capitalism left up to it's own devices.

-P01.07 Sydney: Luna Park

Yaytractor: Luna Park

The opera house isn't the only cultural wonder to nudge Sydney Harbour. Luna Park aptly chuckles at the awkward operatic sails on the opposite shore and rather than proffer high C's, it bellows with the true passion of high screams and churning stomachs.

Yaytractor
serves you a melancholic glimpse of Sydney's original house of fun...
