Ducked and Covered | A Survival Guide to the Post Apocalypse by Nathaniel Lindsay
VIMEO NOTES. Ducked and Covered: A Survival Guide to the Post Apocalypse is an instructional public information film designed to assist the general population with surviving life in Australia after a nuclear war. Produced by the Australian Board of Civil Defence during the early 1980s, this previously unseen, dusty print was uncovered deep within a university film archive.
Broken into four chapters, the film guides wary survivors through the trials that will await them in the post apocalypse. From post-apocalyptic fashion and unique uses for surplus human skulls, to becoming a local warlord and avoiding radioactive mutants, there is something for all dwellers of the wastelands. With its dry methodical narration, brooding synthesizer, minimalist animation and erroneous guidance, Ducked and Covered is a dark humored parody/loving homage to the late cold war era, early 1980’s public information films, as well as a reminder… OF WHAT STILL COULD BE.

John Whitney's demo reel of work created with his analog computer/film camera magic machine he built from a WWII anti-aircraft gun sight. Also Whitney and the techniques he developed with this machine were what inspired Douglas Trumbull (special fx wizard) to use the slit scan technique on 2001: A Space Odyssey

[Refer Notes]. “[Canadian pianist] Glenn Gould is one of the most accomplished and celebrated classical pianists of the 20th century,” says Susan Lacy, series creator and executive producer of American Masters. “Twenty-seven years after his death, we’re still trying to understand the passion and motivation that gave rise to his genius.”
Genius Within: The Inner Life of Glenn Gould unravels the layers of an iconic, but intensely private, musician who had a revolutionary understanding of the Baroque masters – and a sentimental love for Barbara Streisand and Petula Clark.
