Stay the Same

  • Agnes Varda

    Eighty year old Agnes Varda walks backwards through her incredible life revisiting places and people.

  • Occidentally Singing Outloud

    Another little film made with my mobile phone attempting to catch a moment on the beach at sunset. I kind of forgot I was filming and started to sing out loud to the music on my headphones so I made it part of the film.

  • #7 Emma Lindley

    I am always travelling these days and what I’ve discovered is that many things, although seemingly different and far away, are essentially the same.  A plane is a plane is a plane.  An apartment, whether in London or New York, furnished or empty, is where you lay your head.  Friends on both sides of the…

  • Auggie’s Photo Album

    This is for Tommy’s dad Mac (and for me) . . . click on the picture or the link below to play this film clip Auggie’s Photo Album from the film Smoke (1995) And thank you to Davie Newton for reminding me about this nearly two years ago while I was making the test film…

  • #6 Mac’s Gate

    My friend Tommy who is the postman and ranger here on Knoydart told me a while ago about his dad Mac who has been taking pictures of the same gate every Monday for the last twenty years and Mac has kindly sent me some of his pictures. I think they are quite beautiful.

  • #4 Jessica – Back to future

    A good friend and fellow film maker Jessica Townsend sent me this link to Irina Wernings Back to the Future project today. Click here for more pictures. They are quite wonderful.

  • Five Months Today

    I have been filming in exactly the same place, at exactly the same time every day for exactly five months now. It feels like so much has happened in that time, but it has also gone quickly. The platform has aged significantly, the varnish has worn off and today it was covered in ice. In…

  • Every Day is Groundhog Day!

    My life feels a little bit like Groundhog day sometimes (OK, except without the immortality stuff).  The up side is that it gives you the chance to deal with things just a little bit differently, maybe just a little bit better than the day before.  But then like Bill Murray there are also the days…

  • #3 Jim Manthorpe

    So, as a fellow Knoydartian and someone who loves timelapse video, your project does of course interest me. When I saw some of the stills from your project I thought it striking how much your expression reflects the weather in each shot. When the sun shines, you look like you’re looking forward to the day…
