Things on my desk at work

Just to finish the trilogy in five parts, this is the last one, for now. And I only made it because I am so incredibly busy at work (…) and I don’t want the boredom to kill my creative brain cells (the two of them).
Here is the large version on […]

On my table

The perspective is wrong, as is the actual relative size of things on this drawing. But some of the things floating around on my table are some of my dearest possesions.

Tube dogs

Those two did accompany me this morning on my travel on the Hammersmith & City Line. Trust me they look more dangerous than they were, they were quite cute, and a bit bored and not too happy to be on the train. And they have this intensely sad look on their face. They are […]

Incognito

Sorry, I seem to be in a drawing period. It’s probably an unconscious reaction to the fact that I miss working on my script.

Tube tragedy

Tragic. Romantic. But. Pretty. Scrummy. Man.

Inside my head

Great. Typical.
Before you start - I know that you write SCRIPT with a T in the end. I think this really stresses the point of this post: memory overload.
I promise, that soon, when I have cleaned up a bit in my head, I will write some proper posts again. Maybe. Probably.
In the mean […]

I heart it

I picked it up, walked to the counter to pay and suddenly realized how pathetic it must have looked. I wanted to say - this is going to be a prop for my short - it is not for Valentine’s day - but I didn’t say anything. I just paid and walked out […]

To rewrite

In a cinema near you in 2012 (yeah - keep dreaming)
This is what it looked like (because it has changed now), a part of the break up scene in my feature, a scene I have been struggling with for a while. I think I nailed it now but let’s hear what Sam says next […]

I am really sorry for the delay, but the this-is-not-a-christmascard-but-a-card-on-the-theme-of-love-actually gallery has been updated with the latest received cards.
It is amazing to see how much work people have put into it, most of them are hand made and they are all very different! Thank you all so much for sending them! There are 2 […]

I love pancakes

I love pancakes
I really do. Those ones have been indulged in Big Daddy’s in New York, a fantastic 60’s style cafe close to Union scare. And no I couldn’t help myself with the maple syrup indeed. This was my breakfast.
Yesterday night we have cut a first rough (very rough!) edit of our 60 […]

Sparkling New York

Sparkling New York - I. Love. It.
I love to summarize my year in 24 words, so here we go:
Bill. New York. The Girl in the Cafe. Cafe closure. Trains. Short films. Wrote feature. Love. Actually. Inspired. Job. Travel. Dreams. Realisations. Collaborations. London.
A quick look through my year makes me happy, I am glad […]

Trabi on Tower Bridge

Trabi on Tower Bridge - Click for the whole picture
I bet you spend your New Year’s day relaxed. Visiting family and friends maybe, or sleep longer after a party yesterday.
Mine was a bit different. If you are tired following the 60 seconds action feature story, come back later.
A list of what we […]

Happy New Year

Dan in real life in London

London is wonderful at the moment as Dan is looking at me from a lot of tube stations and that brings back really good memories. Not only from this wonderful film, but also from my time in New York where I saw it.
And honestly - wouldn’t you fall in love […]

Room is declutterized and looks about twice the size now. I should do this more often.
This morning the postman delivered 2 more cards in my mailbox. I had some time to photograph them and to add them to the gallery.
May I present you:
Imagine Love, Actually
Love and Bill, Actually
Love Actually, in a stitch
Love lifts us up
Love […]

Storyboarding, tea, coffee and a cake

Storyboarding, a film in the making
But I am too busy to write! Busy with film making that is, so good busy.
A short sum up of the past couple of days:
While in the middle of serving a Christmas dinner to close to 200 people, the fire alarm went off in the […]

I am very knackered after this long day. I had to work until 2pm and after that I did my first shift until 11pm.
I met some really nice people, both colleague volunteers and guests. I have spoken to some of the guests and there are a lot of stories. It is a very good […]

Metropolitan Chief Inspector Kenneth

Metropolitan Chief Inspector Kenneth, such a serious man
(He sure does remind me of someone)
It is getting closer to the 25th and I still had a problem to solve: how to get to my afternoon shift when there is no public transport whatsoever in London that day.
My last and desperate option was calling […]

Love is all around my keyboard

I posted another song from the Love Actually soundtrack in this post. I love this version and was shocked to read that Lynden David Hall, who also performed the song in the film, died in 2006 of cancer at the age of 31.

Today’s card (I am not cheating, they […]

New York cab

The Christmas period seem to have started in the blogosphere, blogs are on a temporary hold, very few emails come in and it is generally just quiet.
So I am very happy with the postcard project because what a great project this is. There has been a new card every day I got […]
