Diary of a Documentary: September 2006
http://docodiary.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Diary of a Documentary. Friday, September 29, 2006. 15 My Father's Father. My Grandfather, Peter Chiswell. I was once told that humans are most lucid at 3am. Something to do with the brain being relaxed. True or not I don't know, but I certainly seem to get my best ideas in the wee hours of the morning. My most recent 3am epiphany so inspired me that it deserves a mention. I have a book to write. What's more, if there is one thing we have had drummed into us in this course it is the importance of a good ...

Diary of a Documentary: 20. Perfect Pole-cam
http://docodiary.blogspot.com/2006/10/20-perfect-pole-cam.html
Diary of a Documentary. Tuesday, October 10, 2006. It goes with out saying that a film about oysters would not be complete without underwater footage. But underwater footage is not so easy to get. Even the thought of getting it is not particularly appealing given that Bluff water is FREEEEZZZZZING! That's why they invented the pole-cam. For the filmilliterate, it is a camera on a long pole, and much better idea than swimming, if you ask me. Practicing my pole-caming technique at Portobello Marine Lab.

Diary of a Documentary. Saturday, February 10, 2007. 25 Fishing for Oyster Footage. I have received a number of complaints that I have not posted anything new on my blog for some time.

Like documentaries about oysters.Mmmm, now that I write that, it no longer sounds so glamorous. However, below is proof that I'm too busy to blog! Filming under a typical Bluff sky.

Diary of a Documentary. Tuesday, October 17, 2006. I received a gift the other day! A CD of Kat Baulus. Photos. Kat has one of those very snazzy SLR digital cameras, which she pulls out at every opportunity and snaps us doing what ever it is we're doing. The nice thing about her shots is that they are rarely posed, and she has captured many a great moment. Our camera teacher Paul Donavan. And I setting up the camera for shooting rabbits. Our very handsome rabbit. Walking to Victory Beach. No, just dreami...

Diary of a Documentary. Sunday, October 08, 2006. And I at chopper school. Here we come aerial footage! Sadly my fossil whale doco has gone out of the window. After much wheeling and dealing I have paired up with Katie. We decided to go with an entirely new topic as both our original ideas had, shall we say, issues. Something is going right. In a nutshell. An oyster fisherman, a dying oyster fishery. A tiny marine worm. And a fight to save it all.Stay tuned! Posted by Bojun Bjorkman-Chiswell @ 1:41 PM.

Diary of a Documentary: 16. Resting in Peace
http://docodiary.blogspot.com/2006/10/16-resting-in-peace.html
Diary of a Documentary. Monday, October 02, 2006. 16 Resting in Peace. The death of Steve Irwin. Has caused a lot of discussion. Despite the timing being rather irksome it is a discussion that needs to be had. For no less a reason than the reality that sooner or later we are going to need a new Attenborough/Irwin type to fill the void. Apologies to Sir Attenborough who is still alive and kicking, but you get my drift. The other use for ornaments is to deter predators. But once again, because ornament...
