Bristol based band Communicators asked me to produce and direct a music video for their latest track 'Bristol' released in aid of Help the heroes and Help 4 Forty.

We shot for two days during the recording of the song at the Beehive Studio.

It was a lot of fun and working with Mitch the lead singer was great, top band! Look out for them in 2012!

I worked on this video as a production consultant, I helped at the start and was really amazed with the way the project gathered momentum.

Meet Me in Winter is a demonstration of what’s possible when people unite and speak openly – sharing their time, their dreams, their stories and their resources to achieve extraordinary things.

Hundreds of people from one small community came together to record a song and a short film. They wanted to raise money to help others, but also to send out a message of solidarity and optimism in the dark months of the year. The project was inspired by the story of one person’s experience of depression during wintertime and how her community made all the difference to her when she really needed it.*

Now, the song has taken on a life of its own. People of all ages are learning it and singing it right around the world. And the one small community where it all began is inviting others, wherever they are, to sing with them. We want to make all our voices heard this winter and we would love you, your family, friends and community to join us.

This August Bristol was the setting for one of the most ambitious urban art projects in the world. Between August 18th-20th, some of the world’s leading street artists took over Nelson Street in the heart of the city, as part of the new international arts event, See No Evil.

Bristol has long been the centre for urban art in the UK and now hosts a project that created some of the world’s largest scale paintings. Over twenty internationally renowned artists took up residency in Bristol city centre as part of a free, three day long arts and music event.

Artists included New York based muralists, Tats Cru whose aerosol based work is dubbed to have ‘changed the perception of graffiti as art’ and LA artist El Mac whose work is prolific across every continent. As well as the US contingent, artists from France, Holland, Spain and Brazil will also bring their own unique styles to Bristol. Bristol born Inkie, one of the most notorious and prolific graffiti artists to emerge out of the 80’s Bristol scene will be joined by a raft of UK artists including Zeus, Paris, Acer and Nick Walker.

See No Evil ended with a Block Party curated by local crew Team Love, which celebrated the best of Bristol’s art and music culture with live street painting, bands and DJ’s, cartoon drawing, screen printing, a pop up barber shop and fancy dress emporium, street theatre and street dressing with a mini garden area stretching along the length of Nelson Street.

It was a fantastic event and I really enjoyed making this film thanks to Max Friswell, Duncan Birnie, Matt Hains and Elliott Albarren for Camera work.

Also a big thanks to Inkie, Mike Bennett, Tom Newall, Bristol City Council and Team Love.
