The Palma Violets video features a Ford Capri, the band performing in their beloved studio in Lambeth, and some serious video distortion courtesy of some very large magnets, used in post. Classic image-messing from Doug... the result is very cool. Meanwhile <em>Long Distance Information</em> continues to be a film festival favourite - it's been touring in ‘The Joy Of Six', which has been described as a “carefully curated stellar package of short films”... <strong>Palma Violets Step Up For The Cool Cats (Rough Trade) Director: Douglas Hart Prod co: <a href="http://www.hsilondon.co.uk/" target="_blank">HSI London</a> Producer: Beth Montague PM: Wayne Bentley Runner: Donald Bentley DOP: Edgar Dubrovskiy Focus Puller: David Pulgarin Loader: Luke Lloyd Gaffer: Nathan Porter Editor: Ben Crook Commissioner: Jeannette Lee</strong> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLNekdqdEgw
