As Christmas approaches, it’s time for a flashback to when Editorial Support Cat, Sisu, was newly out of Wood Green rescue (where he was so badly behaved, the vet could not get close to him).

Thanks again to everybody at the Rheged Centre who helped make such a brilliant screening of Show Up and Start this evening, to Dorothy Ramsay and to the wonderful audience who braved wind and rain to come to watch!

Misty jewels.

Sunset tree tangle.

What we shoot on depends on the day. For walking films, it’s often the trusty GoPro Hero 11, for docs an FX3 with an FX30 as b-cam. *Sometimes* we go for this classic beauty - a 1970 Bolex 160 Super8 camera, for b-roll and character. Currently exposing some Wittner Wolfen Color stock at 24 fps.

What's that? Finally a new walking film? Well, all right. youtu.be/HyE70v_MEnc

“Wut?”

Oh no. Tom Lehrer gone. At his great age, it’s not a tragedy, I know, but it just does feel bad not having his genius in the world.
