We’ve talked about Thomas Slack’s video work before. We love everything this Los Angeles-based photographer and videographer does, and his latest short film – directed with Joshua Kang for INLAB + Maison Kitsuné – is a visual delight.
Don’t you wish all Sundays were like this?

The Road From Home is a short film written and directed by Valerie Chiang in 2013. The film was produced as part of Valerie’s film production curriculum at the University of Southern California.
It tells the story of two siblings going on a road trip in a Volksvagen Camper Van after their parents’s recent death. Travelling around scenic locations of the Californian desert, Noah and Addie played by Garrett Hanson and Rachel Weber, spend time talking about their childhood and family memories.

Cinemargentino is a non profit video library of Argentinian movies founded by Rita Falcón and Martín Ramos Mejía. The platform allows users to stream movies for free and its goal is to make independent films available to the broadest possible audience, once they have been premiered in film festivals and then completed the commercial exhibition circuit. The films in the Cinemargentino’s catalogue are quite difficult to come by once they abandon this official circulation.
In the Fiction section a couple of titles like (How) to be dead by Manuel Ferrari and Bellville by Grupo Hexágono brought our attention so far.
In the documentary section you can find titles like Brides – Godmothers – Sweet 16, a film about The Levy brothers portraying their life in a silk shop located in Buenos Aires, or Mono – an experimental documentary about a renovation in the Argentinian musical scene.
We’re big fans of Todd Selby’s photography and other projects. He recently directed a TV advert for the Small Business Saturday campaign sponsored by American Express. Founded in 2010, Small Business Saturday is a great initiative dedicated to supporting small businesses.
Those in the US will celebrate Small Business Saturday on the 30th of November. This year will we also see the first Small Business Saturday in the UK, held on one of the busiest shopping days of the year, the 7th of December.
Roger, the Chicken is a web series based on the award-winning short film of the same name. This dry comedy follows an eccentric couple on an existential journey through NYC. Roger is a ‘post-post-hipster who lives his life in a chicken costume and attempts to achieve success in a mundane world’
The original short was shot in 2011 and was awarded in many film festivals around the States. That’s how the idea of turning Roger, the Chicken into a web series was born.
Have a look at the first episode of the series below and for more visit:
