Tom German has finally joined the infamous YouTube pipe smoking community, with his first video below.

Tom has been learning a lot from YouTube puffers over the past few months, and hopes this video will give a little back to the community he’s begun to love so much.

A teaser image for your delight and delectation…

…expect something exciting (eventually).

The Bakery’s spring cleaning continues, as we stock up the larder with well-matured projects of old.

Our Youtube and Vimeo channels have received a long-overdue topping up of films and (for those of you who missed it) our recent BBC Radio Kent Christmas feature is at last available on the Bakery Audio Player!

But I thought it was time to air one particular project on the Blog, cooked up many moons ago by Chefs Alaric and Max. Namely, this splendid documentary on Canterbury’s Chaucer College . . .

I’m allowed to enthuse about this Bakery production (ignore the “Black Box” business) as I had absolutely no part to play in its creation.

I do think it’s an important little film. It’s not only entertaining and enlightening, but it also presents a bare and honest view of Chaucer College, without any deceitful, prospectusy smokescreens. This insular, well-hidden college is a bit of a mystery even to those (like myself) who have lived right next to it, so it’s fascinating to see inside, and to see what kind of experience it offers those students who travel halfway around the world for oily food and curfews. 

I know the University of Kent were relatively keen to brush this film under the rug, which is why it should be seen. It’s a nifty piece of journalism, voicing the opinions of individuals whom, one senses, would otherwise go unheard. 

And remember: if your dad says you’re not going out tonight, then you’re not going out tonight.

I’m currently remaking my portfolio, after a year of it showing the same damn work and looking generally very shit. Whilst in the process of gathering all of my old work together, I found a truly old piece of cake left behind the oven. Though unlike a lot of the stale old rubbish I find, I actually really like this short animation I made. After all, it was my first attempt at 3D modelling, rigging and animating. Bakery friend Pete Triggs was instrumental in the construction of this film; providing me with Dairylea sandwiches and valuable knowledge on how to use that god-awful program Maya.

Also comes with mandatory Jazz Remix.

Watch out Adam Droy, that job at The Mill is mine.

Ladies and gentlemen, the project we’ve been teasing you with for weeks: The Bakery is proud to present …

It’s been hectic in The Bakery Kitchen putting this together. Click below to witness the very special blend of beer, immaturity and Macbook-poncery that goes into cooking up every intense Bakery product …
