Hi all!
I’m back again after being absent for way too long.
Me and Bazza
So last time I wrote I was three weeks into my new job, well now it’s been three months and it’s been getting better and better.
In my last post I was half way through filming for the Herald’s Sports Awards in Plymouth.
I spent many hours running around capturing footage of Plymouth Argyle, the Royal Navy Rugby team, Tom Daley and many many more great sporting persons in this city … a hard life I know!
For the night I was responsible for filming and putting together the 7 nomination films to be played for each award category.

I really enjoyed this project as it gave me the chance to practice my camera and editing skills on a professional level since leaving University and it was great fun!
A wonderful evening made even better when I got a hug off the man himself, boxing great, Barry McGuigan!
The next step for me was working with Devon Enterprise Learning Partnership to create a DVD to help students “Wake Up and Smell the Coffee” in order to gain and use enterprise skills as well as getting good qualifications. For this we’re filming a 7min sketch on to DVD which will then be distributed to schools all across Devon. A great project for a great outcome … we’re still in progress so can’t really summarise but so far, so good! One thing I can say though … I’ve gotten location reccies down to a fine art!
Next up the re-vamp of the website … lots and lots of video … another chance to play with the camera and get editing again.
Now it’s late and I’m off to Cardiff tomorrow to film the launch of Skills Wales … G’night, until next time!
