Views From Here has been up and running this week, last day tomorrow. Unfortunately we've been unable to screen 'One All' and 'Heart' this week but we are thinking about some future screening(s) for these films along with the other four that have been showing in Longton, Hanley, Burslem and Tunstall since Tuesday. More news here and at the Views From Here website in the coming weeks.

Tom and I filmed at Stoke City FC yesterday. With what we've got on tape from the two games we should be able to edit together an interesting split screen film. Tom and I just need to crack on with the editing and sort out a venue somewhere in Stoke to screen it. I've done a couple of very quick, rough edits from the footage I took at each game: Stoke City FC / Port Vale FC

Filmed fans at Port Vale FC yesterday with Dave Bethell from AirSpace Gallery. Got a couple of hours of footage that I'll start to edit soon. Filming at Stoke City FC next weekend with Tom.

Back in Stoke-On-Trent again for the last week. Brian, Tom and I shot another two sets of video - timelapse in a disused pottery in Hanley, and stereoscopic video in Moddershall Oak Wood and at Trentham Lake - at the weekend plus I stayed during the week to arrange some venues for the screenings in March. There's two more videos to shoot and venues to find, which hopefully will be done in the next two to three weeks.
The project now has a name: Views From Here, we will be launching a new website for it on Friday 1st February. There will be detailed information about the project including venues, dates, times, etc plus a launch event at a very special venue.

Taken over a year but I've finally got around to creating web versions of the flat pack timelapse videos that Brian, Dave Smith and I made for the Compton Skyline Project. Go to the flat pack page to view them.

Brian, Tom and I were back in Stoke on Sunday, checking out a disused pottery in Hanley and shooting some stereoscopic footage of wrestling training in Fenton. Click here to see some video of the pottery and the wrestling shoot. Liz and Mishka came along to take some portraits of the wrestlers and interview them, go to their blog to see and read the outcomes.

Last time Brian and I were in Stoke in December I shot some super 8 footage around Hanley. It came back from processing today, if you click on the image of the projector above you can see a homemade digitised version.
