Zzap!AMIGA. Demoscene: The Culture, the Legends and the Confessions. JudgeDrokk 2023-08-13 | Credits: Edit/Production - Judge Drokk (Mark Hellewell)Soundtrack (Main Theme) - Kate Lorimer (K8-bit)Soundtrack (Credits Theme) - Eleanor GrayZzap!AMIGA T.V-Wall - Motion of Artstate DigitalA short promotional video looking at three series I produce for Zzap! AMIGA magazine from Fusion Retro Books. These are :- Demoscene Legends, Amiga Party Culture, and Confessions of an Amiga Scener. Featuring valued contributers and star guests, we aim to explore the Amiga demoscene from all angles. In 'Legends' we celebrate the legendary demos that blew your mind in the 1990s. Then in 'Party-Culture' we're go behind scenes at world famous though somewhat underground world of Amiga demo-parties of the 1990s and come right up to date and exploring the modern party event. Finally we explore the (some might say) shady side of the Amiga scene and speak to individuals with a guilty secret in their past that feel they are ready to confess. This is a side of the Amiga I like to think of as the 'fun-side'. Order Zzap!

CELEBRATION:- a room tour JudgeDrokk 2019-08-18 | Welcome to this unique room tour, (though maybe calling it such is like saying Batman is a bit 'mardy') and an exploration of 35 years of 'my' Commodore (but maybe not in a way you might think...) also games, and the demo-scene & cracking scene.This is a personal tour around some of the memories of those years which culmimnated into the inspiration for this room which was created between October 2018 and March 2019.See some of the highlights of my time in the demo-scene on the C64 and then the Amiga where I created the biggest & most successful demo-team to come from the UK ever. Many members later found careers in the games industry and worked on games such as Starfox/Starwing on SNES, Destruction Derby on Playstation and Chuck Rock on AMIGA. The bespoke commisions of the Steampunk C64 & its accompanying joystick were built during the spring of 2018 and 2019 by Paul Parry at www.bad-dog-designs.co.ukAnarchy MOUSE-MAT printed by rhayadercomputers.co.uk Please enjoy this video & give it a thumbs up if you feel it is deserved.
