New Website coming


Finally...I've got my act together, spent endless hours with Steve and we're counting down to the launch of Bing Digitals new site. It connects to client reviews, the Youtube channel, 94.5 blog, this blog, the Bing SUP School, Bing Digital Facebook, Twitter - freekin hell...what a tangled web we weave - but not to deceive. Coming to a Google search near you soon!

Happy Client


Just finished another Safety DVD, this time for Peaking Generation, the power stations that give the extra immediate power when we need it in the evenings - Hydro and Gas Turbines. A few years ago, we documented the building of OCGT up at Atlantis and Gourikwa - they came on line just in time for winter. The DVD's were used for knowledge management and communicating progress.
This recent safety DVD was great fun to shoot, with a good support team and excellent acting skills from Gaeton Schmidt. Thanks to Gerald for the editing skills. I love it when a plan comes together...check out the letter I just got!

Hokisa

Back in Masi, where I started shooting and producing videos for Hokisa 10 years ago. Thankfully the programs have been put to good use and continue to help raise foreign funding for the work they do. The HIV infected kids that might not have made it, have grown into strong, confident teenagers, individuals with determination. We're doing a new DVD from scratch, documenting the incredible achievements, the sustainability of the project. Wonderful people have welcomed me back, allowing me to shoot their lives, opening their homes. Trusting me to show the hidden side of a difficult situation, I owe it to them to do it right and help make a difference.

A walk though Kalk Bay





A walk through Kalk Bay - a fishing village in transition. The roads been under construction for ages, visitor numbers are down, shops have given up and closed, while some have grimly hung on. And then others thrive, with great food, new startups with a queue for a spare table. Opportunities. Come down take a look.

Westlake Primary School


We shot the opening of the Westlake Primary. I love the challenge of taking a broad range of interviews and tying them up as a single story - see what you think.
