An improvised film from 2007 using “Retro Magazine” from Germany which I’d been featured in for the 8BSCSS a few times. Should be doing some more retro stuff for them again soon so keep an eye out

Ok… I admit this is getting silly now…but as requested “825 photographs in less than 1 minute?” !
Warning – please don’t watch this film if flashing lights and fast images affect you at all 
Love Anna x

People often ask me where are all the photographs of all the people holding thesignedphotograph are. Well, it’s a logistical admin job and a half and I get very confused So to enable you to see the scale of the project I’ve updated the previous APOTSPOAB flicker film and hereby present to you “825 photographs in less than 2 minutes?” Music courtesy C64Audio.com I hope you enjoy.
If you are an APOTSPOAB I hope you can spot yourself! Thanks so much to everyone who has taken part. It was a pleasure meeting you, and I have made many friends on our travels. I still need another 1365 people, so if you wish join in let me know and I’ll come to you. I hope to be having an exhibition and film screening shortly too so ears peeled for that
It is a pointless pointlessness for a very good reason… I will get the website tidied up shortly so it all makes sense… for info on how and what and why, please visit thesignedphotograph.com or follow on Twitter
Have a great weekend,

Regular readers will know I am a complete variety and theatre history nut. I was fortunate enough to meet Steve Clark while at the London Palladium a few weeks ago. Steve is one of The Clark Brothers and dance history on legs – or feet to be precise. Have a look at the clip below – it is absolutely incredible!
He is a true entertainment legend who regaled us with tales of working with Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr and many other names I never thought I’d be one degree of separation from. He also said he worked at the Kilburn Empire!
Also below is a lovely bit of video with Sandra (a wonderfully jolly lady with a beautiful beaming smile) when they broke into impromptu sing songs. This clip makes me so happy – it’s a real joy to watch!
(apologies for the hazy video quality – the lighting was very gloomy and had to brighten a bit…)
(I’ve managed to visit a few of the West End Theatres recently so will write more soon about my backstage exploits )
Ages ago I made this odd Doctor Who locations in London odd thing with Joan Metabelis. There is a proper prize which still hasn’t been won – I think it may be too hard (I have the answers written down somewhere…) Watch till the end and email me if you know the answers. The prize is a homemade tardis and a special film made just for you!

An improvised silly film I made a few years ago in the hub of jolly fun which is Kentish Town. It’s to “Crazy Comets” by Rob Hubbard – one of the best Commodore 64 music composers of all time. It was also raining. Music courtesy of C64Audio.com / B+W / 2 mins 6 secs
Back in July we took a trip up to John O’Groats.
APOTSPOAB @ 876 / 2190
Greetings!
I'm Anna Black - film maker, artist, performer and do-er of various jolly things of a creative nature - based in Kilburn, London
At present I'm looking for another 1313 people to have their photograph taken with the signed photograph!
I also like to tinker with retro micro computers and other electronic things - especially the Commodore 64
I hope you enjoy my random scribbles.
Hurrah! All the best, Anna x
