Meracious Machicolations at Manaton

Crikey, wowzers and goodness gracious me - I've finished yet another film sequence - this time for St Winifred's church in Manaton, Devon. At this rate I'll be finishing projects before I've even started them! However there will be a brief hiatus now because am about to depart on my monthly mother trip to Yorkshire and then we're off to film Gareth in Welsh Wales and then hopefully get some editing done when we return home to Film Farm.
The worst thing about the Manaton film was the incessant rain - I felt frozen just watching the rushes!

Bucklebury Beastly Beatitudes

Wowzers, what a week. After finishing Tiffany I then read Ingrams book about Piper prior to our interviewing him in March, finished off a drawing of Galerie L'Art Nouveau (because permission to use the photograph would be exorbitant), and today have completed the film sequence for Bucklebury. Am I chuffed or am I chuffed. Oh, and I've also started a painting for my son's wedding in May!
Meanwhile poor Charles has been having hellish problems with some new software and reinstalling Final Cut Pro so he's been walking backwards the last couple of weeks.

Tiffs of Tiffin at Tiffanys

Following on from my comparative success of 17 January, I decided to rejig the Tiffany film which I had originally written last April, so fingers crossed that this will pass muster when we do some editing after the Gareth trip end of Feb. Just hope I've got the correct roll numbers, timecodes, chapter headers, image sizes (they HAVE to be TIFFS) etc etc.

Brangwyn Website

The Brangwyn website has been dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century with a brand new sleek, sophisticated format and oodles more images and oodles more info. So much for those detractors who, observing me reading Dreamweaver for Dummies at Christmas (good gobble book dontchaknow) looked at me askance. Anyway I did it, all by myself! Check it out on http://www.frankbrangwyn.org/ and let me know what you think! Here's the opening SPLASH page to whet your appetite:
And since everyone has their SNOW picture, here's the lane outside my house a few days ago - reminds me a bit of FB's etchings, Trees in Snow or The Storm:
