New Year

6 January 2015

I think everyone has a tendency to start the New Year reflecting on the previous one. I’m no different, although this time of year never feels new to me.  I prefer celebrating the Chinese New Year as it feels one step closer to spring and the return of the light.   For now, my very brief […]

Ruins, Rumbling Tummies & Writing

16 April 2012

I just returned from a trip to the Yucatan in Mexico, following an all out, balls to the wall period of work on Speed of Light, and an Orange Advert shoot. Incidentally, the Orange job was passed on to me by the excellent choreographer Supple (from Kryptic Movement) who was also one of my first […]

Leaves and Losers

18 October 2011

After a quiet September filled with screen writing and research for Speed of Light, October finds me feeling fit as a fiddle and loving the change of season. In spite of the fact that the sun seems to disappear in an instant (how is it suddenly dark by 5!), I love the Autumn. The layers, […]

Riots, Revolutions and Real Life

7 September 2011

London and the UK had a riot (or two), New York got a hurricane, and Libya continues its revolution. Meanwhile, my blog life has been superseded by my real life. From hiking up mountains with runners in light suits, to working with Jessie J, August was a busy old month.

Prague, Pink Nails and Perfect Days

5 August 2011

I just got back from Prague where I was shooting an IKEA advert. Now, my focus is back to Speed of Light (the site specific piece I’m working on for the cultural Olympiad next year) and screen writing. This month I’m loving Czech food, brightly painted finger nails and home made Italian (actually Italian American) […]

July, June Bugs and Jobs

6 July 2011

For me, July is the sound of June bugs, since, despite their name, they hatch in July. It turns out that what I call a June bug is actually a Figeater Beetle whose habitat is the Southwestern United states where I grew up. In other parts of the US, people sometimes refer to Cicadas as […]

June News

12 June 2011

Well folks, June has been pretty eventful thus far. I’ve finally settled in London for a bit, as I’m aiming to be in the UK for the summer. I’m also attached to a fascinating light based, site specific project called ‘Speed of Light’ which will take place in 2012 on Arthur’s Seat in Scotland as […]

Osama, Obama and tsunamis…oh my.

18 May 2011

What with Osama’s death, Obama’s speech, earthquakes, floods, tsunamis and nuclear meltdowns, my news seems pretty uneventful. Nevertheless, I’ll plough on in the false belief that I am somehow at the centre of the world…bua ha ha ha! I’ve just finished shooting a spot for Best Buy, working again with my lovely assistant (and budding […]

April News

25 April 2011

I’m currently in the US after a period of living UP IN THE AIR (so far, I’ve flown 20 times over the past 8 months…) I’ll be back in London to work with director Guy Manwaring on a commercial for Best Buy in May.   I’ve also just finished spots for Trainline (dir. Sean Mullens) and […]
