NOvosibirsk show for us – Day Nine, Krupskaya 2018 Siberia Tour

Our show in Novosibirsk is cancelled and so, a day of relatively relaxed driving between cities awaits us.

Krupskaya's first album in fifteen years releases next week, as does the start of our tour across Czech Republic, Indonesia, Malaysia, Dubai and Lebanon.

Dépayser, the second full length album from Black Metal band Nyss, is available now for pre-order on Avantgarde music.

Our first full day in Siberia takes us on a journey to Omsk, the fabled city of idiots.

Will and Sassy turn one year old this week. They've come a long way since flying across my living room and spraying us with napalm shit along the way. Shitpalm, if you will.

Yeah well, they do. It's a fact. Great white sharks swim through kelp. We proved it, incase you were unsure.

Today marks our venturing into Tyumen and with it, our official entrance into Siberia itself. Exciting times.

Between an occupied City 17, conquered Berlin and infested Dunwall, Viktor Antonov has crafted compelling worlds which seamlessly blend the fantastic with the bleakly real, and are among my favourites in gaming.

Today we visit Yekaterinburg, an incredible city which further challenges any preconceptions I had about what Eastern Russia would be like.

Flag was a 4.5 metre great white shark, seen in both Gansbaai and Mossel Bay (South Africa) from 2007 to 2009. She was massive and terrifying.

Anna and I recently worked with Black Metal band Nyss, to light and photograph the mixed media cover artwork for their latest album 'Dépayser'.

Because not only are white sharks absolute bad asses who generally have no interest in killing humans, but they're actively helping us battle one of the most terrible diseases on the planet. We're welcome!

I recently put together a small journal entry which explains some key lighting principles, demonstrated as predictably as ever with Unreal Engine 4.

Today we experience Perm and perhaps most amazingly of all – Alex singing on Rock Band. Step aside, Glenn Danzig!

Despite what my portfolio might lead you to believe, creating a compelling sense of tone, mood and narrative through lighting requires more than just chucking a load of blobs at the screen and hoping for the best.

Since great white shark drawings are something I indulge in fairly often for fun/work as it is, I figured it's high time I tried to capitalise on the trillions of people searching Google for how to do the same.
