Double Trouble! Dominic Leung's Bloc Party & Happy's Short.

Double bubble from Blimp towers as we add Dom Leung's sensational Bloc Party to the site alongside Happy's relentlessly inventive short film Jane Lloyd.

Dom Leung joins us fresh from shooting 2nd unit on Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy with his old Hammer and Tongs partners Garth Jennnings and Nick Goldsmith. Dom's full reel will be available shortly but we are bursting to show off his Blimp debut so here it is.

Happy have been beavering away on their short film between enormous commercials and their occasional sneaky video for Freeland. Well worth waiting for this is an absolute peach. Good work gents and we are looking forward to more from Happy in the Autumn.

Three months of gestation; four weeks in the making; a four day shoot and 3' 50" of pure electro class from LCD Soundsystem equals Dougal's first video since November 2004. Its a one take wonder and Mr Wilson is back with a bang.

Ben Ib delivers his first video for The Colonel and its a corker. Drawing inspiration from 80s wank classic Weird Science - Kelly be thy name - the Cardiff pot heads try to create their perfect woman for Your Missus is a Nutter with predictably disastrous results. Nice action Mr. Ib.

Its a 21 gun salute for Dougal Wilson this morning as he has just won the Rushes Soho Shorts Best Video prize for Dizzee Rascal beating former Blimp stable mate Adam Smith and Johan Renck.

Well done Dougal and we are all looking forward to his new LCD Soundsystem which delivers on Monday week.
