The Beginning of the End or the End of the Beginning?
Hey 72 peeps
So no video for only the 2nd time in this crazy blog. I'm giving the camera a break!
I leave Melbourne on Friday after 2 months of absolute craziness. Is this the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning? I can't really tell, but the fact is that the 72 Hour Movie project must now be called 'The Ballad of Des & Mo' and recognised as a film in its own right. I'm looking forward to seeing it again once I'm in the Northern Hemisphere, and getting out to all the other people who would love to see it.
So much focus in filmmaking is upon getting the film MADE and not the film SEEN. This now becomes the centre of our attention. Please bear with us as we go through all the small steps that will make the film ready for the release it deserves!
In the mean time, I must get back to the teaching. If you want to see me here in Melbourne, come along to the Open Channel FRAMED event on Thursday and we'll try and sneak a cheeky beer somewhere afterward.
Much love,
James

The one with no video...
Apologies for asking you read this as opposed to watching it. I was burgled on Thursday and one lucky thief got away with the computer I was using to record video diaries for 72. I haven't yet ruled out whether this was the reason it was stolen in the first place, as some of them were pretty bad. Either way, we'll end January with a text-based update as opposed to a video one.
Both Gary Hoctor and I are quite pleased to see the back of January in all honesty. The little dispute over websites and the recent theft are just two of the low points, but the whole month in general could be written off as a month of great potential yet little progress. There are still so many 'irons in the fire', but few have come good for us yet. It is not something that is setting off alarm bells for us, but it is frustrating.
However, being the eternal optimist, I can see February being an entirely different situation. The FUNraiser in Berlin will be awesome. There is also a meeting with a potential sponsor at the end of the month and there is some really exciting news on the script front that I hope I can publicise later. One 72 volunteer, Andrew Brown, will be landing in Melbourne in the next few weeks also, and I hope to get the other Melbourne based volunteers set up and busy too. So February will be a month of real progress. On the downside, I turn 29, which is perhaps the most depressing element, but we'll gloss over that.
I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your support, and hope to post a video up here again soon!
