Looking forward to welcoming Madalitso Band to Pat Looking forward to welcoming Madalitso Band to Patch (Bobby's) next month. Pick up tickets via my bio. After their Glastonbury show where they got an honorable mention in the Metro and had a track shown on BBC2.

We'll also have a 10 minute preview of the upcoming documentary. Check out the link in my bio to get tickets. £5 off for a week or so.
Madalitso Band's HMS Sweet Charity show at Glaston Madalitso Band's HMS Sweet Charity show at Glastonbury was a killer set. Amazing that their set can be played at folk events but also (as here) in between DJ sets.

What an amazing two day crash course in film produ What an amazing two day crash course in film production, and just at the right time. Even though I'm primarily a director/editor my knowledge of the various producer roles has gone up considerably. Not only that, but Paul Sarony filled the time with the craziest anecdotes. Definitely feel much more confident about the idea of making another feature film in the coming years. 

Big shout out to Claire Main and the BCP Film Office for putting this on. And lovely to catch up with Stuart Marshall Steve McCarten Lynn Coleman David Coleman David Mutton Georgina Stone David Jones Adam Dickson Laurent C. Lucas Annie East Iveta Bognarova Anna Langridge

Big shout out to @vikikovacsphotography for the excellent photographs, and @expertvideo21 for his work on cameras.
Embracing Creativity: My Transformative Journey in Embracing Creativity: My Transformative Journey in India
Our documentary explores the profound changes that travel can spark. At nineteen, a trip to India shifted my focus from law and medicine to a creative path, empowering me to embrace my true passions and stand strong against family expectations. #TravelDiaries #CreativeJourney #PersonalGrowth #Inspiration #CourageToChange #AdventureAwaits #DocumentaryFilm #LifeChoices #SelfDiscovery #Empowerment

One of my most amazing life experiences took place One of my most amazing life experiences took place in the village of Solang, a few miles north of the hippie haven of Manali, where the streets are paved with herbs. I had decided to do a tandem paragliding jump, and somewhat under the influence, I remember finding myself at the top of the hill.

The instructor’s voice cut through the mountain air: “Run, run, run!” Just like calling “Action!” on set, it’s that moment of commitment where hesitation becomes your enemy. The ground dropped away, and suddenly, I was flying.

Years later, I discovered The Art of Dreaming – a book I never finished. I’m not a believer in ghosts or spirits, which is where Castaneda lost me, but lucid dreaming? That’s something I do experience occasionally. Sometimes, the most valuable lessons come from incomplete journeys. I learned to recognise that moment in dreams when the ground no longer held me – just like that first paragliding leap.

Whether in dreams, in flight, or behind the camera, there’s a state of pure flow where the rules of ordinary reality seem to bend. As a filmmaker, I’m constantly seeking that sweet spot between grounded reality and soaring imagination. It’s about finding the perfect balance – knowing when to keep your feet on the ground and when to let your creative spirit take flight.

Looking back, that moment in India wasn’t just about the thrill. It was about realising that the most powerful creative experiences come when we’re willing to run full speed toward the edge of our comfort zone. Sometimes, you just have to trust your training and take the leap.

Took the walk along the river, down by where I went to film school when I was 21. The last two shots are Tom getting stuck into the edit on the train, and the majority of the kit. The Canon C200 and the Canon EOSR. Add in the Black Magic 4K and some Rode mics, and you have almost everything you need for a great, and cinematic looking podcast.
Such a great venue for a show. The Marine Theatre Such a great venue for a show. The Marine Theatre down in Lyme Regis. Jingo Janga is one of my favourite @madalitsoband songs. So nice to catch up with the team as we head into the final phase of the documentary.
