New documentary...

This project is ongoing for such a long time now. To looooooooooong I would say. But as they say you can't rash good things LoL. Now is in a stage of postproduction. I don't want to revile to much about it at this point. Only thing I can say is that it will be another attempt to unconventional documentary. If I can just plug USB to my brain and project it for you guys that would be awesome!But unfortunately that is not a way...
I just wanted to share with you the poster I made for this film :)

Bernard & Blue full movie :)

I had a pleasant opportunity to meet an incredible person called Bernard. On my way shopping I always pass an elderly man walking his dog, which by the way, is elderly as well. This gentleman always has a smile on his face and there is no person who would pass him without greeting him and smiling back. And Blue (the dog), despite of the fact that she barely walks, still playfully tosses her rubber frog around.
Bernard is an 82 years old gentleman from Salford who is suffering from dementia. As long as he can remember his life’s motto was to smile and laugh until it hurt. This approach to life made him stronger and helped him to face the struggle of life and cherish every minute of it.
In early 70's Bernard tragically lost his son who was only 17 years old. Last year he lost his daughter and shortly after his wife. Now it's only him, his loyal companion Blue and Karen, a lovely career who helps Bernard out with everyday stuff. They developed a strong bond, which grew in a strong understanding. This film is documenting one day of Bernard's life, his everyday routine filled with memories from the past and longing after his loved ones.

Black hole o_0

I had a quite big break away from bloging. I've been busy working on my final project and then...well black hole o_0
I guess I've been busy with more mundane matters which for some reason  completely overwhelmed my brain keeping me away from things that I love doing. I know excuses, excuses... So during that aspect time I got a lovely gift from my friend. Actually it is a graduation gift which was a nice big surprise! An old typewritter yey!!!You might say why the hell would you want an old ancient device like that?!Well that's me I'm very sentimental and I think there is a soul in all those nowadays antiques. And the fact that some of them are still working and we can still use them is just incredible!


Meet my Olympia, isn't she gorgeous :)

Another think I did was my first professional website. I wanted to do this for a long time but...as I mention before excuses, excuses!
I have dyspraxia which makes simple things and normal tasks or even thinking more complicated then it really is. I can't explain that really. It's just I have certain ways of dealing with stuff and if some little details are missing or just something is not complete then I'm literally F***** o_0 
In this particular case I've been missing my logo, my recognition signature. Therefore I procrastinate with  making my website for such long time. There were other reasons which I did overcome but logo was the key! I've been trying to create it by myself but I wasn't sure so I just reach for professional help. Sylvia Asparuhova  the lady who design poster for Bernard & Blue helped me with that as well as my business cards. Thank you Sisi X


 That's my logo I'm really pleased with that :)












One day I decided to play a bit with adobe adobe illustrator and I add some aground colour which looks like this:



But for now I'm gonna stick with the first one.
