Airside has produced a new promo for Flashman, the moniker under which Airside's Fred Deakin has released an album with ex Beta Band drummer Robin Jones.

There are a few moments in the video where the methods involved in the making of the film are revealed. However, if you want to know more, there is a five minute making-of film too which you can watch at vimeo.com/25809459
