Having had a mere week back in Kent scaring the living daylights out of the spiders which had taken up squatter status and clearing all surfaces of the Miss Haversham style dust covering, I returned to Film Farm for the 1st edit session. We reckon that we are going to need at least 7 week long sessions and in between my lectures and Charles' other commitments we have booked ourselves for editing purposes almost every other week until mid March. This first session, in the brand new edit suite (see above) went very well. We tried out one of crumple-pops split screen devices for the opening and their new bottom 1/3 captions. Being Patrick, the film is already shaping up to being both humorous and instructive.
Brought up in Stockton-on-Tees, went to Sheffield University to study Architecture and ended up with a degree in English. Took a secretarial course and worked in an Architect's office hoping to put myself through art school. Met Graham, married and moved to Saudi Arabia (where I was PA to a Government Minister), then Iraq (I did a correspondence course in Interior Design to fill up the time), then Hong Kong. Our two boys were born there and I worked as a freelance graphic designer. Back to UK (Englefield Green) in 1997, did MA and PhD at Royal Holloway, London University (a hop and a skip down the road). Moved to Kent 2003. The rest is history.
