Now if I wasn’t excited enough about the upcoming Alien prequel ‘Prometheus‘ then this outstanding bit of marketing should. The video is in the form of a TED talk that takes place in 2023 and a tease of what is to come in the film. As a concept for promoting a prequel for an already famously established story it is a stroke of genius and I hope the film carries on in much the same vein.

I started a placement at Black & Ginger today and it went well. For part of the day I was researching ye olde death portraits. Here are some of the more interesting finds of the day.

This last one is my favourite (if you can have a favourite) as it is so clear and striking. It looks like something straight out of film noir.

Maybe tomorrow will be less morbid. I doubt it.
