Gorillabot – I’m Just a Robot
Over the last few months I’ve been helping out on Craig Bush‘s music video I’m Just a Robot for the band Gorillabot. We both saw them for the first time at the launch of their EP Malware. This photo of the aftermath gives a flavour for the gig. It was like a demented kid’s party.…

Gregory Is A Dancer & Behind the scenes shots
It’s great to finally have Gregory Is A Dancer out in the open. Big thanks to everyone involved again, and to everyone who watched it. It’s interesting how much work and accuracy needs to go into something to make it look silly and shambolic. The tracksuit combinations alone took a lot of consideration. Kirby Skank…

Notworking
Recently I was asked to write for the good folk at Shooting People about film. So after a small amount of head scratching I thought I’d tackle the thorny issue of networking. I see it as an important part of making your way through film, but people get it so, so wrong. Here’s what I…
