Possible Futures results

It has been a long wait on the Possible Futures Film Competition, using social networking to push a voting campaign accross the world.

Both 'Shooter' and 'Orla the Golden Eagle'  were in competition, with a total of 317 entries from 44 countries, with some extraordinary stories being told..

And on the 26th July 2011, the results came through, 'Shooter' had been Nominated in the final 5 of the Peace and Freedom section, a very proud moment for me and all the people involved and who supported the film from day one.

Fly

While I have been waiting on results, replies for jobs and applying for positions on other projects, I decided I should make another short film about the two things I love most, film making and fly fishing.

It took more than 10 days to gather the little moments for this film, with one of the sequences that I shot last year, but it had to be seen again, the piece where the Dragon fly and the Damsel fly bump heads, a special moment, and here it is http://vimeo.com/26802494
The short film is called Fly, and it has been complimented by the 'Wait for Me' track, composed by Moby, and supplied from the Mobygratis.com web site, a place you should visit.

Big thanks to, David Clements for the assistance, and to Angelo, John, Kevin and Johnny from the Carman Trout Fisheries for the support during the filming of this little piece.

Since I posted this little video a load of magazine sites have hooked up with the film, driving traffic to my material, see what I did there, Hooked up:)
