THE TERRIBLE BEST OF DIGITISER2000...!

Oh man! We're celebrating five years of Digitiser2000, whatever that is! And here to mark the occasion I offer you a bunch of things that I've created over the last half-a-decade that represents a reasonable cross-section of The Best of That Stuff. 

Starting, of course, with the first proper episode of Mr Biffo's Found Footage, which you can click on above. I miss it. Maybe I'll do something in a similar vein.

WAIT AND SEE.

And if you like that, there's a whole load more of it here. It really should be the most popular thing of all time.

THE TROJAN ARSE PROTOCOL

The grand finale of Found Footage was as slick and high-production value as the preceding episodes were lo-fi and sloppy. It's a complete gear-change of an episode, an excuse for me to direct my own sci-fi epic, but... I love it so, so much. Nothing made for so little money has any right looking this good. 

DIGITISER THE SHOW

Where Found Footage was, relatively speaking, a breeze to make, Digitiser The Show was a headache. Aside from having to learn on the job how to be on camera, there was enormous behind-the-scenes pressure, plus a bunch of drama, and I confess that it has all somewhat coloured my feelings towards it. 

But... remove all that baggage, and watch it again, and damn... it's really, really good. It's exactly what we set out to do: make a show that could've been on TV, and honours the legacy of the original Digitiser. I'm very proud of it. Though if I did it again, I'd do it completely differently.

DIGITISER MINIS

The current evolution of the Digitiser channel took a while to find its feet; do we make it an extension of Digitiser The Show? Is it just about retrogaming? How stupid does it need to be?

Yet during all that working out, Gannon and I developed a chemistry and a working short-hand, realised that the games stuff was holding us back, and now... we've stumbled upon something that I feel is unique and special. I love doing these. A ridiculous amount. No plans whatsoever to stop anytime soon. We're just getting started.

Lastly... this site. I've written about this elsewhere today, but here's a cherry-picked selection of post that I feel are a good representation of Digitiser2000 at its ridiculous best.

Not many of my longer, more thoughtful, pieces in there, but you've got five years' worth of those to dig into if you want to go back over them.
