Carved Pumpkins @nationstudio

A little bit early perhaps but we fancied displaying some pumpkins in the window of our studio for the week running up to Halloween so we decided to eat our body-weight in sweets and carve up some gourds. We’ve also been listening to the Halloween 3 ‘Silver Shamrock’ theme on loop in the studio. Good times.

Alton Towers Scarefest 2009

Nations first studio trip had to be good, and since we can’t quite stretch to speedboats in the Bahamas (Give us a year) we decided to show the un-initiated what Alton Towers is all about. Rollercoasters. Big Ones. Oh and it was the Halloween ‘Scarefest’ so we ran through some corn fields being chased by zombies too. No Really.

Augmented Heating

Odin and an open fire

While summer isn’t quite “officially” over, The temperature makes It seem like nothing but a distant memory already. We’re without any central heating in the studio, so purchased a couple of heaters to try and keep the place toasty, while we were at it we’ve tried to make in feel warmer too so have set this up in our empty fireplace.

Make you’re own studio ‘Augmented Fireplace’ with this video, this Greasemonkey script and a projector.
