So, I felt that it was about time someone posted something. You know… considering it has been about 8 MONTHS since anyone posted… I am so sorry people, so sorry.
As some of you may know, Jayme went to England a while ago. He posted a couple of comments on Facebook before giving up, cause he’s rubbish like that. He twitted quite a bit, though. The first trip had a few complications so Jay decided to come back and go back to London at a later date, when things could be organized with more ease. Either way, he is currently in London again! And is still rubbish at posting. Also emails.
He’s been doing some adverts for radio an did the soundtrack for a T.V advert in Andalucia He will be coming back for Christmas and then returning to London at some point afterwards.
Joe! has been busy with various videos, and on Monday he will be filming the first division Granada F.C. He doesn’t yet know if he’ll be putting the results on youtube yet. Him and The Tall One have been setting up their own website which you can look at here: www.luxvideo.es You can see his new Hombres Solos music video, also the controversial (in Andalucia) UPA advert. Go check it out, he’s been a busy boy

And that brings us to a section I like to call: What Jayme Missed Out On…
The first scene with the monks in a smoky room was actually one of the last scenes we filmed (there were a few more, but close enough) It was certainly the last scene I appeared in. I was the monk who´s sat down, Jayme did the voice over later. He was actually the second monk. The scene proved surprisingly difficult to film due to the smoke machine, which was half broken and temperamental to begin with. The preparation took a lot longer then we thought it would and new problems kept arising, just after the smoke machine had let out another belch of head-lightening smoke. There wasn´t much ventilation in that room and we had to shut the door to get the cloudy atmosphere.
The cigarette that I stub out is actually a dog-end we had to scavenge around for as only our older brother smokes, and by the time we final got the take I nearly burnt my fingertips. Joe was behind the camera at that point as well as directing the whole thing, which actually means “make sure Jayme doesn´t get distracted” something that was very dificult considering Jayme was on a skateboard for part of the scene. Then the smoke machine died, only to come back to life at inconvenient moments, the table was at the wrong height, was the wrong size, the legs got in the way of the camera, the hoods of the cloaks were never in the right positions, the box kept clipping the edge of the table, the candles were melting away and Jayme was still messing about on the skateboard. Oh, Joe! how my heart bleeds for you at times…
La primera escena con los monjes en una habitación llena de humo fue en realidad una de las últimas que filmamos (hubo algunas más, pero bastante cerca). Seguramente fue la última escena en la que aparecí. Yo era el monje que estaba sentado, Jayme le hizo la voz después. De hecho, él era el segundo monje. La escena demostró ser sorprendentemente difícil de grabar debido a la máquina de humo, la cual estaba medio rota y ponía de los nervios empezar con ella. La preparación llevó bastante más tiempo por lo que pensamos que seguirían apareciendo nuevos problemas, justo después de que la máquina de humo hubiera soltado otra vocanada de humo. No había mucha ventilación en esa habitación y teníamos que cerrar la puerta para conseguir una atmósfera nublada.
El cigarrillo que aparece es en realidad una colilla que sacamos de los alrededores ya que sólo fuma nuestro hermano mayor, y para cuando finalmente conseguimos la toma casi me quemo la punta de los dedos. Joe estaba detrás de la cámara en ese momento dirigiéndolo todo también, lo que en realidad significa “asegurándose de que Jayme no se distrajera” algo que resulta muy difícil teniendo en cuenta que Jayme estaba sobre un monopatín en parte de la escena. Luego la máquina de humo se murió, sólo para resucitar en los momentos más inconvenientes, la mesa estaba a la altura equivocada, con el tamaño equivocado, las patas se metían en medio de la cámara, la punta de las capuchas nunca estaban en a posición correcta, la caja seguía pendiendo en el filo de la mesa, las velas se derretían y Jayme seguía distrayéndose con el monopatín. ¡Oh, Joe! mi corazón sangra por tu culpa a veces…
Hello! This is my first ever post and hopefully not my last. I bring you all a new Jayme comic strip! Well, it´s more of a comic skit than a strip. Still, enjoy!
