At long last a chance to update after what must have been the busiest few months of my life. It’s hard to know where to start.
Karaoke
Karaoke premiered at this year’s What They Could Do, They Did in Edinburgh, and was well received in most quarters. The paparazzi were on hand to shoot the hotly anticipated red carpet premiere event, and they weren’t disappointed by the array of stars on show, including the leads Tom Moore and Alice Saint, and soundtrack producer Daniel Jones, who attended with his beautiful girlfriend Julia Hodgson.

The rest of Edinburgh was a real treat too. If you take a look at my YouTube channel, highlights will be springing up over the coming months.
The Pictures (zine)
The Premiere Issue of The Pictures is now available for the price of an S.A.E. Its 38 pages feature a semi-argumentative interview with the legendary Jonas Mekas, a talk with Quiet City director Aaron Katz, gossip on The Curse of The Dark Knight and Karaoke production stills, with beautiful illustrations by Tom Moore and Katherine Hardy. All content is (so far) exclusive to the zine, and won’t appear here for quite some time. Drop me a line to get your copy.
Ecstasy
Here is a short film.
