Stand-up comic, media presenter and former art student Peter Berner is swapping banter for brushes in a serious bid for artistic acceptance. He's decided to tackle the subject he knows and loves best - himself - and enter a self-portrait into the Archibald Prize. This is a video diary of his endeavours from blank canvas to judgement day, including interviews with other artists and critics about the creative process and the background to one of Australia's highest profile art competitions, and some excruciatingly honest critiques of his work. The result is characteristically irreverent and decidedly revealing.

For two years, Turner Prize-wining artist Grayson Perry worked behind the scenes at the British Museum to stage his most ambitious show yet The Tomb of the Unknown Craftsman. In a major departure for both artist and Museum, Perry was given free rein to choose whatever he wanted from the Museum's collection of more than 8 million objects gathered from around the world. He also made his own works of art from his trademark ceramics to sculptures, tapestries and even a working motorbike. The resulting exhibition was as if the visitor had stepped into the treasures of a mysterious civilisation a civilisation built entirely around the obsessions of Perry himself. Granted unique access over a two-year period, this film paints a revealing portrait of Perry's creative process, and even follows him on a motorbike pilgrimage to Germany as he explores the artworks, ideas and motivations that lay behind his British Museum show.
