Crazy melons in the furore

We are now up to Shooting Day 4 of Beyond Infinity, and I have to say it’s fast becoming the biggest, most challenging, but ultimately, I’ve no doubt, the most rewarding project I’ve worked on thus far.
Days 1-3 were an enormous challenge, logistically and personally, as we balanced people, politics and production, but came away with the goods: 8-10 great interviews with some wonderful responses from clients, colleagues and industry veterans. Day 1 saw us back up at Taree, at Jim Frazier’s farm, and Days 2 and 3 were in Sydney.
This post finds me in the bizarre and crazy city of Hong Kong, where we flew yesterday. Today we’re headed to the InterContinental to film another couple of interviews, thence out into said craziness to pick up some B-Roll and pieces-to-camera. We’re still in Honkers tomorrow morning, at an optical distribution factory/office building, then tomorrow night we fly to Singapore, where we’ll be getting more interviews and seeing some of the Fusionopolis complex.
Back to Sydney on Saturday morning, where a few weeks of ‘pre-post’ and data organisation will take place, alongside some standard Onion work (and Ph.D compilation/research for me), then we’re off to France in early July.
All very exciting!
Until next time…
