Sunday morning vimeo: 15% of all road accidents are caused by drink drivers

Earlier, I mentioned that Vimeo has an advantage over you-tube because its high-def capability attracts amateur filmmaking enthusiasts. Here are a few awesome samples:

A light hearted film Written by Ray Ford and which I directed after a short film making course I attended this time last year. The course was seven Saturdays from September through October.

Filming was all done on one day which shows somewhat and with a budget of next to nothing. I guess all in all, it was a fun experience.

NOTE: I’m not sure why some of these guys disable the high-def embedding, but it seems they do. Click the film title in the lower caption to see this clip in high-def. Double click once there to see full screen.

Here’s one that did allow high-def embedding. I watch this one and conclude that surely the filmmaker was familiar with the song and then made the film. It’s fits so perfectly. I really like this one, and after downloading the song via iTunes, I’m addicted to it. It will pass, but still ...

Visit the North of England (click title in lower caption to watch in high-def):

For the past couple of years, here in the North of England, our winters have been mild and wet, similar to our summers in fact. But this winter looks like being much more like proper winters should be, very cold and occasionally very beautiful. These clips were all shot last weekend with the strange mists covering miles as far as the eye could see on Saturday, and heavy frosts sparkling beautifully in the Sunday morning sun.

I filmed this on a lark, walking home from seeing the musical RENT on 41st Street, down 8th avenue ... it was raining and FREEZING, but I was so happy.

Cant get enough ... this takes me back to listening to the transistor radio while delivering newspapers before dawn. How is it that a hot NYC chick knows this ancient song?
