The other week I went out in the blistering sunshine.
I even got sunburn.
Easy to underestimate (and forget) the power of the sun... especially in Yorkshire 😆😎
(It’s usually the world capital of pissing it down in the freezing cold)
The reason I went out, was to film a piece to camera for my new music video showreel!
I rigged up a GoPro Hero 8 with a mic (loaned kindly from my good pal @jackshootsstuff) and took off to the middle of absolutely bloody nowhere for a good old
ramble.
I had a good old wander around the moors actually.
I walked specifically on the verge of Saddleworth Moor.
These moors have a grizzly past though, in the form of it being the location of ‘The Moors’ murders from between 1963-1965 where notorious killers Ian Brady and Myra Hindley assaulted, murdered and buried five children. Very brutal stuff and super sad. There is a body still out there, undiscovered, because the killers never disclosed that particular location.
There’s nothing creepier than being on huge expanse of the moors over dusk 😬
Anyway, luckily I didn’t see any murders take place where I was.... but it’s an awe inspiring place in the sunshine.
For my video, I’m following the same format of my last showreel in which I talk to the camera and introduce pieces of my work.
I want it to be like what I did back in 2018 and I was aiming for a more personal introduction to me and my work.
I’m going to have this new video edited and out there ASAP as I aim to re-launch my ashtv website, as well as launch a whole new branded website of my corporate work which I’m moving away from the ‘ashtv’ brand for.
So as well as the usual work and family to juggle, it seems I need to maintain my outward social presence again for the first time in 3 years.
Lots of work to do, so little time.
Cheers for reading, @ashtv.
