A still from a short promo myself and @benjamin_hay worked on earlier in the year for @williamandson.field - a great studio day with some incredibly beautiful clothes, props and people! #filmmaking
It's now been an entire decade since I went to Burma/Myanmar together with @jamesholmanfilm @ahhhhhli and @steve_perks . It was unheard of back then for people in their late teens/early 20s to visit the country and for the most part Myanmar wasn't really in the collective consciousness of the majority of our generation. Our trip also marked the first time anyone had ever embarked on a skate trip to the country to document skateboarding, which we thought was pretty cool! Looking back, it's incredible to realise just how far skateboarding in Myanmar has come and the lengths to which Myanmar skaters continue to develop skateboarding in their country. This is a very quick abridged insta-version I knocked up recently. The full 20 minute documentary is up on Vimeo (with a Staff Pick no less!) for those with slightly longer attention spans. Type in “altered focus burma” to google and you’ll find it on James’ page or on the Ride channel YouTube. Such a great project to look back on and be proud of. Both from a professional perspective, as it gained us a fair amount of recognition (trip to LA for the skate film awards, hello! 🙋🏻‍♂️) but really just from a personal life-hammer perspective it was unbeatable. I remember the first night being absolutely terrified we were being watched by the government and deleting interview footage (in retrospect, I’m sure they had better things to do!) to the first time visiting beautiful Mandalay, volunteering at a school and enjoying every minute of the experience. This world is has so much to offer, it just usually resides outside your comfort zone. If anything this is a nice reminder for myself to take those occasional leaps of faith into the unknown, it’s always worth the jump!
