Meet Steve. Steve's a busker, but not just any ordinary buskers, he's got a story to tell and it's very interesting. Steve used to be a dancer with a soviet dance troupe touring the world. I was heading home one afternoon when I heard some haunting music floating through the underpass, and it was Steve playing a soviet folk song on his accordion. I was hooked and asked if I could come and film him one day. He agreed, and this is the result. I'll do more with Steve, a series of interviews.
So, after much delaying and procrastinating I actually wrote and filmed something with a narrative. As much as I like pottering about with my camera on days out, I need to do something more. So this is it, very simple, a metaphor for addiction. I used my mighty BMPCC 6K Pro plus my Sigma A-Series lenses. Captured in BRAW, which on reflection was total overkill!! But it was a good learning experience and my actor Izzy was so easy to work with.
