My first attempt at making a video, not great but its a start.

OK, so I got this awesome camera the other day.  A Canon 650D.  The reason being is that I want to start making documentary films.  As an Asian Studies student (graduated now) I really want to be doing something more closely related to my passion for Asian culture and society.

Below is my first attempt.  To clarify, I'm really not that impressed.  The standard lens isn't that great and the tripod is designed for photography, not film.  But all good, I just need to develop filming techniques that don't rely on focus pulling, zooming and consistent panning or pitching.  Anyway, check it out peeps, and please be sure to tell me just how bad it is :P

Blast From The Past

Below is just a little blast from my past.  The few days prior to me visiting Thailand more than 5 years ago now seems kind of funny.  Following that I went back to Australia to study, then came back to Thailand, which is where I have been living for about a year and a half.  Fascinating where life takes us.  Click the text to go to that part of my archive and read the epic journey I faced when I was so much younger.

An anxious wait

Today has seen a new sense of urgency for my leaving. I only have 3 days until I leave the country and I would really just like to get my journey underway. My room still hasn't been filled yet but I have lost all care for this god-forsaken room. My budget seems to be inline anyway so I just want to get going.I had the pleasure of briefly going out on the town last night. 2 of my house mates and I went to a pub in Brisbane. I am terrible at having a good time when I go out. Always concerned about peoples thoughts and opinions. The night ended after 35 dollars of bear, Macca's and a train home.I put my sudden pessimism down to last night. I'm just not party material at the moment. Maybe my trip will change that. Then again maybe partying isn't really a skill I'm interested in.

I'm back. Where did I go?

This is brief, but a warm sense is flowing and I'm glad to be back.  This platform is back in my hands and I'm looking forward to updating more regularly.

For those just visiting now for the first time, please feel free to check out my archives.  Lots of partly interesting stories from years passed.  I can't wait to let you all know what has been happening.
