Well after returning from Montrose this weekend to record a Guinness world record of Squash playing by a Scotsman (over 69 games in 12 hours) I am considering producing an Anti Bullying fllm by a young writer from Leven in Fife. The role of a Film Producer is to be responsible for the budget of a movie – to work out how much it will cost for each element such as paying crew fees, hire of equipment, transportation and so on. I may be required to help recruit a crew and I may even need to be present at the shootings. This is a new role for me so I will be pleased to take this job on should this production go ahead.

Book Launch Film Promo
This week I was approached by an Edinburgh based author to produce a 30 second video clip that can be used to promote her debut novel on social media sites and the internet. More authors now are realising the importance of digital marketing techniques and the use of social media to promote their works. One of the possible locations will be Loch Carron which is not far from Skye. It looks like I may be camping so am looking forward to this project as it will be nice to get up into the highlands again. Again I can only hope and pray for dry weather. More updates to follow folks.
Photographing Events
Today I went with my dog Angus to a village Fete. I took my wee compact camera as I had hoped to provide some nice images to go with this blog, and it’s easier to use a compact while holding a dog on a lead. Unfortunately, the weather today was dull and wet – I didn’t see anything that would make a compelling photograph so I ended up not taking any shots. I always practice camera ‘in editing’ whether it be still or moving image. Time is of the essence and I don’t believe in taking even one shot, just for the sake of taking it. Any shot should engage, enhance and promote an event. So on my return I have decided to continue working on developing this site in time for the new marketing flyers and cards which I hope will be delivered on 25th of this month.
First Announcements
Well as the end of term approaches at Perth UHI I am looking forward to re-branding Jinja Ninja Productions as Vincent Anthony Media, offering the new services of Motion Graphics and Web and Graphic Design at long last, along with Moving and Still Image capture services. I will also be looking at obtaining funding to start the Kinross Animation Workshop which will be a Community Educational Project aimed at promoting the local wildlife and heritage of Loch Leven and the surrounding areas. I hope to have a trial workshop carried out in the summer holidays and hopefully with positive feedback from the client group, this will help support funding applications. Will keep you updated folks!
