The Man of 2 Worlds: More than just a YouTube title......

If you’ve been following my recent creative shifts, you’ll have seen the moniker "Man of 2 Worlds" popping up. It’s a title I’ve given to a series of silent videos I'm in the process of creating, but as I sit here in the Ayrshire quiet, reflecting on where I am at 60, I’ve realised it’s much more than a branding exercise. It’s a philosophy. It’s a way of standing with one foot in the digital future and the other in the soulful, analogue past.

The Evolution of My Video Rig: Welcome to the Ozzie Pop Era

If you're a regular reader, you'll know that I've been on a bit of a journey lately. A "creative pivot," if you like.

I want to capture the wind in the heather, the flow of the Allt na Reidh, and the feeling of that 7 am drive into the Mennock Pass.

It’s been a little while.

The day job has been positively buzzing and so busy, and frankly, my mind has been a bit consumed with all it entails being a professional embalmer. But something rather exciting landed on my doorstep recently, something that’s pulled my gaze away from the virtual modular rack and firmly towards the skies (and the bogs, it seems!!!).

My Little Nev: Conquering the Scottish skies (one gust at a time!!!)

It’s been a few days since I’ve put fingers to keyboard, but I wanted to share some thoughts about a rather exciting (and occasionally bewildering) addition I made to my kit a few months ago: my DJI Neo, affectionately known as Nev Drone (or just Nev for short).
