Our initial house style; we ended up toning it down a bit.

We initially produced a teaser which was completely useless as we ourselves didn't even know what the final product would end up being:

In the end, we made four episodes of our Sp!tsstrook, and filmed a fifth that I never got round to cutting together. We went looking for an advertiser who could fund our purchases, after which the newspaper would pay us for the finished videos and publish them online - mind you, this was an age when posting stupid shit on YouTube wasn't yet considered a viable career.

It hardly bears explaining why we couldn't secure an advertiser. The videos were too bizarre for any company to affiliate itself with them - and that's not even mentioning the dubious graphics, offensive imagery and unlicensed music. I daresay that any attempted partnership with our madness would have driven sales down, if anything.

We had a good time making them though; it was a summer blissfully misspent. They are all in Dutch; instructions can be followed through the physical demonstrations, however - it's a largely visual experience. So if you wish to make either a butane mini spud gun, a tin foil solar cooker, a bin bag box kite, or a brush robot, these are the videos for you. Enjoy!
