Short film "Fresh Off The Boat" which I DOP'd is the directorial debut of Femi Oyeniran (actor who played Moony in Kidulthood) and has been nominated for Film London 's Battle of the Boroughs(BoBs) and there is a picture of me on the front cover of JVC's Highway Magazine and an article on P12&13 about Ambleton Delight.
I had a meeting with Suz Cruz diary service in regards to joining their books; which I hope will alleviate the problem of not being able to answer my phone whilst I am filming/in another time zone etc.

I managed to do 3 concerts in the space of 8 days with only one rehearsal for 2 of them! The programmes included Beethoven’s 4th Symphony, Seranade for small orchestra by Mathias & Mozart’s The Haffner Symphony 35 in aid of Cancer Research. The concert at St John’s, Smith Square, London was in aid of Maternity World Wide and included Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture & Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No.5. The Ealing Symphony Orchestra concert included Honegger’s Pacific 231, Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No.4 and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 5.
I joined The Ealing Symphony Orchestra and am hoping to be playing in their concerts throughout the year. I used to be a professional violinist but I'm a bit rusty now. I am hoping that joining this orchestra will keep the music alive in me.

There is an article with a picture of me in The Argus Newspaper as I am filming a public consultation meeting for documentary “Sussex Fights For Life” – me and camera operators from local news channels we were given permission to film on the basis that there would be a point where we would all be asked to turn off our cameras. Me and the other camera operators agreed but when the moment came the public was so enraged by this that they protested loudly until we were given permission to carry on filming! Go people power!
