happy medium

For the Girls second full day in Auckland I decided to take them up the sky tower. Last time was about a year ago with Mum and Bro, and the view still amazes me. A great sunset, and plenty of chances for me to take some panoramic photos (don’t forgot to click the higher-res links below those photos!)

It was a pleasure showing them around, they flew out to Fiji today but both have a strong desire to come back and visit : )

Had the pleasure of showing Chloe and her friend Charlotte around Auckland this week. Took them out to Devonport on the first day, up the Mount, down to the beach, enjoyed the best ice creams at the ferry building, and back to mine to an open fire.

Over the weekend we shot our second music video for Simon Spire. It was tricky one as everyone (and everything) is frozen in time apart from Simon. He wanders around inside various houses and gardens, passing by a couple having dinner, a girl throwing out the rubbish, the band, and a BMXer mid-jump, played by your’s truly. The video is set at night, so we started midday, shot the interior stuff first, then all the exterior parts after 8pm. It was about 1am before we got round to shooting the BMX, and it had started to rain (not ideal when you want time to look frozen)

I can barley get an inch off the ground, but it’s going to look like I have mad steez and in the middle of 3 foot jump. Matty and Solly have the pleasure of having to get rid of the wood frame in post.
