There are also various short films, under a ‘Home Movies’ section, that showcase their work from 1998 until 2009, including behind-the-scenes footage from various videos and their two feature films so far, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy<\/a> (2005) and Son of Rambow<\/a> (2008).<\/p>\n

Amongst the highlights in this section are: the puppets used for a Supergrass video, the elaborate planning needed for an R.E.M. video, a psychedelic trip out to the Joshua Tree nationa park, on-set footage from Son of Rambow and a subsequent screening of it in New York and the shooting of Vampire Weekend’s video for Cousins in a particularly long alleyway.<\/p>\n
