Pitchfork's Jessica Suarez said:

'The Junior Boys' new video for "Like a Child" (a track from 2006's So This Is Goodbye) has a great handmade look to it; it almost feels you're watching a homemade, moving scrapbook. The watercolors that cross in front of the video footage make each little picture of the band glow like a small stained-glass window-- a fitting way to visualize the song's delicate, subdued nature.' ]]> Flash streaming video - 42MB|6m13s|480×270.

The live performance of Mira Calix's Nunu is performed with a tank of insects including cicada's, cockroaches, crickets and beetles. The audio and video is sampled from the insects in real time and mixed live. Sadly, some venues will not allow the use of live insects so we were commissioned to make a pre filmed version. The concept was to present an environment where each type of insect could be sampled individually whilst being sensitive to displaying the mood of the music and the ways in which the piece was originally conceived. The set was constructed out of jam jars, each one arranged with a combination of insects, plants and flowers. This acted to contain the insects and also hark back at a childhood nostalgia and sort of backyard scientific aesthetic.]]> Flash streaming video - 61MB|14m54s|480×270.
