You meet a Nicer Class of Goat…
I think the weather didn’t get the memo. Well into October and as I write this 23 degrees C. This is not at all normal. I was discussing the weather this morning with my new friend. She, well I think … Continue reading

Encore….Reshoots…
It happens to the best. You know the scenario: You start to edit and you realise you are missing some shots are missing for the project to make sense. Nothing for it but you have to assemble the cast and … Continue reading
