The Film Man

 I was very sad to hear that Colin Stevens had died. He was very talented in many ways but I knew him through the films he made for my pop-up gallery.

He edited bits of  super 8 cine and family videos together to produce a multi-layed film to show visitors when they arrived for their tour. ( you can see it on my YouTube channel, divided into four parts)

His film about my work, for Cambridge TV and a record of my stint as Artist in Residence at Ely Courthouse can still be seen in the Film/TV section of the NEWS AND REVIEWS page of my website.

Colin also devised my Virtual Tour and had lots of ideas of how to make it informative but not boring.

However, his crowning achievement for me was to come to the rescue on a Thunderbirds film I had been making with my six year old grandson. Technically it was a nightmare but Colin calmly took it on and saved it from failure. A true hero.
