From Monday 10th August 2009, Channel 4 in the UK will start showing eight "3 Minute Wonders" Martin Hampton made with Yipp Films earlier in the year.
The films deal with the different experiences of people bringing up children while trying to hold down a serious corporate job, examining the new science of Human Resources Management (which corporations use to engender loyalty in their workforces) and tentatively asking how much the cradle-to-grave ethos of the corporation affects both their employees and their children.
