Toy Con UK 2015

Some people stop playing with toys when they're kids. Other's are cooler and keep playing with them. Some are even cooler and make them. The last of my event overload [https://www.tvtrev.com/event-overload/] Toy Con UK 2015 came & went last week and it

TV Trev goes to Barcelona: Day 4

The final day of the convention I intended to experience it in it's fullness so arrived on time for when it was due to start, naively expecting to be able to stroll in but was instead met with a queue that went around the building making for a

TV Trev goes to Barcelona: Day 3

After a night of drinking I woke up more than a little late and settled into a lazy morning of finishing the epic book that is Ready Player One which I'd set out to read and finish by the end of the trip. It was well worth it

TV Trev goes to Barcelona: Day 2

Much like day 1 the convention was not crowded when the day started however unlike day 1 crowds started to stream in once the work day came to an end as it was Friday and people finally had the time to spare from their jobs with the weekend having now

TV Trev goes to Barcelona: Day 1

Part of a 4 day convention, 33 salon internacional del comic de Barcelona is my first venture into a non UK event for geeks, fans and nerds of all description. I've taken a well deserved break from work to attend and will be spending a week in the

Artist Highlight:Lobulo Design

It's been a while since I did an Artist Highlight and I stumbled across this design studio very much by accident but I can't deny the video of Lobulo Design [http://www.lobulodesign.com] isn't a fascinating look at what designers and their teams

Orange is the New Black

June Trailers

If unlike me you don't live on the internet you might have missed the release of the trailers for two hotly anticipated returning shows. Both Orange is the New Black and True Detective decided today was a good day to release the trailers for their new seasons. OITNB

{<1>} It's safe to say we as a society are obsessed with the hidden world that we don't see or the world that we imagine lies beneath our world. So it's fitting that this month's theme was Covert as the

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: Roundup

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: Roundup

I think it's fair to say that Flatpack was a weird & wonderful ride full of twists and turns. The fact that it was all over Birmingham meant that if you went to multiple events as I did you got to explore a lot of what Birmingham had

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: Shorts, Singing and Sion Sono

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: Shorts, Singing and Sion Sono

My final day at Flatpack and the penultimate day of the festival itself. Spending it mainly in Digbeth going to 3 Flatpack events, Riddles & Recitals, Richard Dawson and Tokyo Tribe. This made for an afternoon & night filled with amazing shorts, funny songs and a Yakuza rap musical. Riddles

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: Time & Motion

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: Time & Motion

An evening of live animation and performance different from Paper Cinema's The Odyssey [http://bit.ly/1ED56Dv] but equally as wondrous. If the Odyssey was story, spectacle and intrigue, then I would consider Time & Motion to have been more spectacle and intrigue. Held at Millennium Point and

Paper Cinema's The Odyssey

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: Magic, LOLs and an Odyssey

The majority of my Saturday was spent at MCM comic con however I made time for 3 events at Flatpack and I'm glad I did as they were all pretty special with the last one being something I'm incredibly glad that I didn't miss.

Flatpack Film Festival 2015: The Tribe

Flatpack [http://flatpackfestival.org.uk/event/the-tribe/]'s unique offering of film you wouldn't usually get to see in cinemas usually is highlighted with this fantastic Ukranian piece from Director Myroslav Slaboshpytskiy. The description on Flatpack's website says the following: A stand-out entry in Cannes

One of the first attractions of the packed roster that is the 9th incarnation of Flatpack Film Festival, Edwardian Horror Show was done in partnership with the Birmingham Museums and held in the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery, fittingly enough in the Edwardian tea rooms to help further fuel our

In a desperate rush to fill those spaces of time in my future where I don't yet know how busy I'll be I have managed to get myself into 4 different festival/conventions that I will be looking to write about. Some of them I have

Flatpack Film Festival 2015 Preview Party

For those who missed my brief coverage of Flatpack [http://bit.ly/1nV2YEn] last year it's a festival which takes over venues across Birmingham every March.

Munny Mojo Jojo

Munny Mojo Jojo

A blank canvas is a wonderful thing, it's a place where dreams happen, where you can create whatever comes to your mind. If you're like me, when you saw the brief you wanted to do something that no one else would be doing with the Munny.

So much TV so little time

So much TV so little time

There are only so many hours in a day but we are constantly bombarded with new and returning shows on competing channels as well as online screeners like Netflix, 4OD and BBCiplayer. With so many options for what we can and should watch we have to make the sacrifice of

February Loot Crate Review

February Loot Crate Review

February was another strong month for Loot Crate with the theme for the months crate being "Play". In their words: Playing keeps the imagination primed, which not only helps us feel younger, but inspires creativity! I couldn't agree with this sentiment more and it's

Power Rangers Just got cool again...

Power Rangers is one of those TV franchises that has been done to death and literally will not die a decent death as the powers that be in television keep churning them out. We all loved the original Power Rangers and maybe some of the spin-offs that came after, however
