This is a video inspired by the Tom Waits track "Children's Story" on his "Orphans" CD. The soundtrack is from the CD, and the artwork and editing was done by me.
This is my first edited movie; made with Windows Moviemaker, and it depicts the London that I know. It was filmed in 2005/2006 in and around the Whitechapel area of East London, where I live (with the exception of the busker, who was filmed last weekend in the London borough of Greenwich.)
All of the music (with the exception of the title and credits tracks) was as is, part of the scene.
A montage of video and photos, taken during the KJMBA leg of the Tom Waits Glitter & Doom Tour, June/July, 2008 (Knoxville, Jacksonville, Mobile, Birmingham, Atlanta, with a side trip to Savannah GA between K&J).
These are photos i took in Paris in April, 2006. Most of them are shots of people, but there is some scenery and architecture in there as well. The music is "C'est Comme Ca", by Les Rita Mitsouko.

Killer show, they were great.
Ben Godwin performing the title cut from his new CD, "Skin and Bone" at The Bedford, London, UK, December 20, 2006.
I apologize for the quality of the video, I'm still an amateur.
The performance was stellar however, and I highly recommend the CD and any concerts you can catch.
