Apologies (again)

  • Listening to: Judge Jules, on Radio 1
  • Reading: "A Stitch In Time" by Andrew J Robinson

  • Eating: not enough
  • Drinking: Boooooze!
It seems like that's all I do now on dA, apologise for not being here! Well, for those of you who can still be bothered to read my journal (and I don't blame you if you don't!) here's my usual round of excuses:

1) I've been busy.

:P

okay, that's too simple.

• I have become self employed as a photographer/videographer and have got a lot of interest on corporate videos, training DVDs etc.

• I have started working with a company in my home town who work big on the web and have a lot of use for streaming video and film.

• Also, I've started principal photography on my first feautre-film, due for a potential release in the UK! I am Director of Photography.

Lots going on. Anyways, there's some material available to all of you, anyone who wants more info should go to [link] Look at my latest scrap for a sneak peek behind the scenes!

Peace out, and I promise to look at all the deviations and messages at some point - i'm setting aside a day in the near future to do it all.

In the meantime, I hope you're all well, have fun!

Hi everyone, I know I've not replied again for a while, I'm getting to it! I promise! You're just all so good and quick at sending me messages I leave for a week and BAM! there's 200 staring at me!

Hope all are well and glad to see the creative juices are still flowing!

Quick update from me, I have been bogged down with some freelance video work and my teaching duties, it's coursework season for Year12 and times are getting busier.

I'm also off to Switzerland on the 29th for a few days, I'm going over to Zurich to the international premiere of the movie "Nightcast" directed by the great Marco von Moos, to meet him and his crew and to hopefully learn as much as I can!

But here is what I really came to tell you all aboot, my group, TeamTV, has just got another new revamp to the site, some new content, and the final online release of our last finished production, "Flying Apart" is online to view - please check it out and let me know what you thought if you are so inclined.

:spotlight-right:CHECK OUT "FLYING APART" HERE:spotlight-left:

We're also in the final stages of pre-production for the next piece, a feature length romance tale shot on MiniDV. Second round of casting finishes in the next 2 weeks!

Cheers for reading, I'll be in touch soon guys!

...or at least, it's me again.

Must have been about 3 months since I managed to get on DA....OK I have an explanation! *flinches* no really!

So it all started when I left school and went to get a job....(I bet you've heard this before)

The search took a good while, and when I actually did get a job, I had to go on a 3-week training course in Northampton, where I met lots of highly fascinating and scarily odd people.

Since starting the job the weekend after that, I have had so little time to do anything that I have neglected DA here as well as many other online communities. So, soz for that!

As I'm getting to grips however, I thought I'd get back in touch and update a thing or two.

By the way, I'm now a Digital Studio Photographer for the second largest photography company in the world!!! :D so w00t there, unfortunately, I won't be able to show any of you gusy the beautiful stuff I get to shoot at work as the company I am employed by retains all the copyright and expressly forbids the use of work in portfolios as it presents a "conflict of interest".

Still, I have learned a lot from it and intend to put the knowledge to use in a private studio environment before long.

Also, TeamTV is buzzing along, with "Flying Apart" finished and on it's way to release, and a new feature film in production currently, we've just started casting!

I hope everyone is well, let me know how you're doing!

I'll try and reply as soon as I can, but time-wise.. no promises yet I'm afraid...

That's Life

Hello all, I find myself once again apologizing for the lack of contact recently - it's one big break in transmission as I like to call it, and unfortunately it's not gonna get much better in the coming months - tis an odd time. In a week a lot of my friends will be off to uni, and I start working part time as a sort of consultant and hopefully full-time as a studio photographer! *fingers crossed* :P So I'm quite busy at the moment. Also there are a few video projects coming up and not only I am directing and editing as usual, I seem to have become a full-time PR person and webmaster..check out the site is all I can say - Team TV's Virtual Home. I know I have plenty of deviations I have yet to look at, but I promise to get around to it - I'm not being rude and ignoring everyone's brill work!

Also I recently visited the last night of the BBC proms in Hyde Park, London :excited: where I saw One Step Behind (a great Madness tribute band), the legendary Chas 'n' Dave, the ULTIMATE Lionel Richie (whose new album quite rocks btw) and of course, the BBC concert orchestra. Nothing gets me quite as patriotic and excited as thousands of people waving union jacks and singing "God Save The Queen" and "Jerusalem" up and down the country. I actually decided as a result as well to go and see Lionel Richie in concert at some point - he was truly awesome. Looking forward to it ~Tarento?

In fact he was so awesome that the whole crowd booed terry wogan when he suggested we move on, eventually chanting "we want more" for a good few minutes! Great stuff :D HERE is a pic of Lionel on stage and the crowd (and myself) waving flags and cheering!

So yeah...otherwise (I hate to be the emo-fag :P) but life has left me feeling rather empty and miserable at the moment. I thought a lot about it, figured out a few reasons likely to have contributed to this feeling, realized no-one gives two flying sh*ts and decided to try and get on with it lol Any ideas ppl? :P

Righty, I g2g get on with some work and reprogramme an iPod! :D

I'm 57% Retarded!

Fri Sep 8, 2006, 4:00 PM
I didn't get tagged, but I found this on my new matey 's page, so I thought I'd pick up the baton and do it, because I always felt I could be quite retarded overall, so let's see :P

[x] I have walked into a glass/screen door.

[x] I have tripped on my shoelace and fallen on my face.

[ ] I have choked on my own spit.

[x] I've seen the Matrix a bunch of times and still don't get it. (1 and 2 I get, but no.3 I still don't get why they'd end it with such a shitty finale!! Such a sucky last film to a trilogy I've never known! I mean what about that utter %£$&*^ sunset?? What the f*ck was that all aboot?! The Wachowski Bros owe us all an explaination!!)

[ ] I type only with my pointer fingers.

[x] I have accidentally caught something on fire. (and sometimes deliberately too :P)

[ ] I've told a cop to feck off and gotten screwed for it.

[ ] I attempted to sip out of a straw but it accidently went into my nose, rather than my mouth.

[x] Sometimes when I think of something funny, I laugh out loud and people look at me weird.

[x] I've caught myself drooling.

[x] I've accidentally caused an explosion. (and again deliberately lol!)

[x] If someone says the word "fart", I can't help but laugh. (depends on context but mostly :XD:)

[x] I've turned into a "do not enter" one way road plenty of times.

[x] Sometimes I just stop thinking & zone out...

[x] It is POSSIBLE to lick your elbow. (if you dislocate certain joints :P)

[ ] I just tried to lick my elbow. (I'm not that fond of dislocating my joints!)

[x] People often shake their heads and walk away from me. (sometimes before I've said anything!!)

[ ] People often tell me to use my "inside voice".

[x] Gum has fallen out of my mouth while talking. (I thought it said "guns have accidentally fallen out of my coat/pockets while talking" so I ticked it :P

[ ] I've used my fingers to do simple math.

[x] I've jumped off a moving vehicle. (often between 10 and 40 mph)

[ ] I ate a bug for $5 or less. (c'mon! That's only about £2.70 something in sterling! Wouldn't you want at least a tenner!)

[x] I'm taking this test when I should be doing something more important. (always)

[ ] I repost chain letters because I'm scared of what they threaten will happen if I don't. (the people who post them should be scared of what I'll do lol)

[x] I've done something really stupid while I was drunk. (message me if you want a list, I have at least 25 in my top-most stupid things done whilst drunk list :P)

[ ] I lost words often...and forget what I'm gonna say and choked most of the time.

[x] I shouted weird catchphrases often and dunno what it means.. and people thought I'm weird. (Actually usually there's one person in the room who get it, the rest just look at me wierd!)

[x] I've searched all over the place for something, and then realized it was in my hand the whole time.

[ ] I accidently break a lot of things.

[ ] My friends know not to use big words around me.

[ ] My friends like me because I'm fun to laugh at.

[ ] I have slow reaction. U know like...washing my hands TEN MINUTES AFTER I thought about washing my hands

[x] Sometimes I start telling a story and suddenly forget what I'm talking about. (only occasionally though - usually alcohol related :P)

[ ] I've fallen out of my chair before. (doesn't count, my chair collapsed :P NO! I'm not overweight!)

[ ] When I'm laying in bed, I sometimes stare at the ceiling and try to find pictures and words in the texture.

Total score [19!] So I'm 57% reatrded, but for different reasons :P if you can be arsed do it, tis funny :)

Once you get your answer multiply by three and repost as "I'm ___% retarded"

Righty, I don't always tag, but I'm in a fun mood today s I'm gonna give people some misery :P I tag....:


AND anyone else who cares to do it for fun! Look forward to seeing some.


(ps: I just realised that if all of these apply to you, that means you are 105% retarded :P)
