I’ve just completed a PT 10-week film and video making course ahead of making my short film in the early part of 2024 and thought I’d share an imperfect project that had to be completed as part of the course. One or two of the clips have glitches that my limited editing software was unable to resolve and in terms of the tone, I wasn’t able to quite say what I wanted to say with the piece owing to the time restrictions placed on all of us on the course. I have enough here to make for a longer piece in which I would like to tackle the question of why I gig and the part ego may play in that, even in someone as grounded as me.
I’ve not been here much lately. It really has been a poor year, personally and creatively, so this is a sort of Christmas gift to those of you who’ve stuck around.
Don’t forget my annual Advent Calendar podcast is out, available from Holdfast Network and Apple Podcasts, and I am also trying to salvage my historical football podcast When Shorts Were Short, partly out of respect for all those 30+ guests who I interviewed without releasing the interviews owing to the massive amount of work involved. I’m hoping I can turn the show around slowly so that financially it starts doing something for me. That podcast is available via all providers and in desperate need of positive reviews.
A man can dream, right?
Enjoy the film.
