Just got back from filming Europe's biggest pharma e-marketing summit EFP.
This is the view from the hotel which overlooks the Deutscher Dom. It was snowing but don't think you can quite make that out from the picture.
Can't wait to go back and spend some more time exploring.
Nick & I have just spent a couple of days on a film set. We're shooting some 'behind the scenes' EPK stuff for a new horror anthology called Little Deaths Our old war buddy Sean Hogan is directing the 2nd of the 3 episodes in the anthology, 'House & Home'. The first & third films are called 'Bitch', written & directed by Simon Rumley and 'Mutant Tool', written & directed by Andrew Parkinson.
Tuesday evening we joined them on a night shoot over near Enfield, where dog handlers were on hand to control the 'actors'. Filming seemed to be going fairly smoothly and apart from the bloody temperature, everyone was happy at the wrap for the day.
Yesterday we were at a closed set over in Mill Hill. One of the crucial final scenes was being filmed and the poor lead actress Kate was clearly involved in some harrowing scenes. We had a nice chat to her afterwards and spoke to Simon and the DoP Milton Kam, who is shooting all the films on a Red One. They gave us their thoughts on the fully digital workflow and were generally really happy about the picture and performance.So, we should have some cool goodies for EPK webisodes & a BTS documentary for the DVD release. Will post again when we visit Sean's set - expecting more harrowed actresses there...

It's a campaign where Cadbury are asking people to swap any regular purchase to the Fairtrade equivalent (not sure everyone understood the concept thoroughly, one portly gentleman told us he would swap a crate of beer he had in his boot for chocolate bars!).
Anyhoo, the idea is that you let them know what you have swapped on the Cadbury website and you can download a free album of British song re-recorded by Ghanaian artists. Pretty cool.
So we had a busy night, interviewing the attendees (including Harriet Lamb - the 3rd time we've had the pleasure in as many weeks!). It was a fun night, we got some nice photos & soundbites for a little promo to help the campaign along. Had a sip (a sip, mind) of a Ghanaian brewskie, and we were given a little gift as a thank-you on the night - 4.5KG of Fairtrade Dairy Milk bars!!
Well, hopefully our consumption helped to do a tiny bit of good in the world(!). As I think I've said before, it's nice to see the big boys beginning to embrace ethical trade...
