If you.re ready for something different and lots of it, Stash 46
is your beast. This issue packs an hour-long main program, seven
Behind the Scenes features and three bonus films into a 90-minute
explosion of unpredictable brilliance.

We open with one of the most striking and memorable self-promo
films you are ever likely too see. It.s a dark and cheeky effort
called .Postman Returns. full of military mayhem and crazed
carnivores direct from the twisted young minds at Amsterdam.s
PostPanic.

After that opening volley, the game can go anywhere and it does .
first to the mesmerizing night-time light paintings from director
Tak Kuroha and Dutch art collective PIPS:lab for the Ford Kuga.
Then we.re off to the chroma-challenged dystopian future with
Digital Domain for Mazda before heading to Japan for a psychotropic
ew game cinematic for Konami from Digital Media Lab, onwards and
upwards to Hamburg to catch the newest clips from Sehsucht for
Mercedes.

We swing back through New York for a peek at Tronic.s new
widescreen magic for SONY HDNA before finally catching the red eye
to New Zealand for a gander at Yukfoo.s pair of eye-popping spots
that promise to balance your karma after playing Sega.s .Condemned 2..

The broadcast and motion design section is just as international
and even more eclectic: We start (with tongue firmly in cheek) at
Oceanwarmair who intro us to the riveting world of snail racing for
Nick UK; Taiwan.s first HD channel gets a rich and tasty package from
JL Design in Taipei; Copenhagen-based Thank You studio slams handmade
and hi-tech together for Danish Radio.s music award show; London.s
Dstrukt goes where few have gone before for Sci Fi movies; and Wanda
keeps toddlers and parents glued to the tube for French cabler Tiji
while Prologue keeps audiences glued to their seats with the end
titles for Ironman.

The visual globetrotting continues in the second half of the program,
from the logical expressionism of the new data-driven Interpol video
from LA.s Blip Boutique to the head-spinning fun, hilarity and just
plain whackiness of projects like Weebl.s .Walk in the Woods. short,
.H.P.A.M. from Jake Portman (aka notactualsize), El Nino.s .Better
than Prince. video for Flairs directed by Jonas&Francois, Sherbet.s
stellar new .Snow Angel. short for Sony based on a story by John
Malkovich, and our closing project, a surreal tale of campified
villains and heroes told with a tour de force of clip art by Run
Wrake for Veer.

Also not to be missed on Stash 46: the latest standout projects from
Framestore CFC, Passion Pictures and Nozon.

PLUS - BEHIND THE SCENES features offering insightful looks at the
blood, sweat and tears that went into the making of: PostPanic.s
.Postman Returns., Birdo Animation.s quirky .ResFest 10. opening,
Thank You.s "Boogie Prisen" broadcast design package, JL Design.s
.HiHD. launch spots, the ambitious new Thay Khay music video by
Laposta Cine, PetPunk.s charming multi-media extravaganza for their
hometown of Vilnius and director Laurie J Proud.s enigmatic .Snow
Angel. short for Sony.

The BONUS FILMS on 46 make up the third in our series of STUDENT
MINI FILM-FESTs demonstrating the refreshing range of styles and
techniques explored by the most talented of recent graduates. This
program includes .Toumai. by Carlos Stevens from the Art Institute
of Portland, .Lilium Urbanus. by Aca Risca and Joji Tsuruga from
the School of Visual Arts in NY, and .Chump & Clump. by Sacher &
Herm from HFF .Konrad Wolf. in Potsdam-Babelsberg.

indie label. Far East Recording works out of Tokyo and have sent us
six MP3 tracks from electronic artist Omodaka to awaken and expand
your audio lobes.
