Very nice stuff Sion. I particularly like the bits where the fast movement walking down the street cuts abruptly to a static shot. Regards, Ben

Ta very much, Ben.
I of course, ahem, did that deliberately...

Delicious. Relentless pace. Great little camera. I'll be picking up one myself shortly.
You're a fast walker.
Best,

Nice one! Walking ok then?

Wish I could say my pace was as relentless as the camera.
The piece took about two days to film, on and off. You need about a minute of timelapse for every 2 seconds of end product.
The magic of editing cuts out the limp and the sitting down.

Shiiiit!, man, old man, i see you're nearly destroyed leg has healed up quite nicely, thank ya very much! :)))....and I thought i was always running ;)))
besides the lovely jump cuts and quick stream, what i dig about it most, especially coming from a crackin' old PJ, is that it is so spiritually liberated and humorous: like rich breath and spring song step :))...and yet, we also feel the weird headiness of Orchard Road
69 and Mango anyone? ;))
lovely lovely stuff...joyeous to see that there are PJ's still who dont drivel in the past and yet make fun and compelling work :))
hugs barrister...
running
