filming in Spain finaly

Yes! I am going to be filming something. In a little bit different way than I expected, but still I'm looking forward to it. Before I get to that a little update of what happened in the last few weeks, organized chronologically in bullet points!

1) (ok they are not points but numbers)
After Edinburgh Film Festival I came back to Spain and I did what I usually do there, which is totally nothing. Really unproductive week full of eating tapas and drinking cañas, but still some ideas for my new movie have emerged in my head. Time passed fast to the number:

2)
Another job in Scotland - T in the Park music festival, which as all jobs in Scotland I'm getting - was absolutely amazing. It was good to come back, especially with brilliant weather for this part of the world. The festival itself was fine - I filmed some pretty good bands. From my stage the best ones this year were: Pendulum and Katy Perry with her tartan dress - amazing (to see, not only hear!). Apart from that the main attraction of this year's T for the Tech team was a game of spoons introduced to us by Mike Guest (one of the camera guys). The rules were simple - take a wooden spoon (or a big metal one) and hit somebody with it when they least expecting it. I know, sounds a bit childish, but everybody was playing it. I really enjoyed this work, great times (even sleeping on porta-cabin floor was alright).
I left Edinburgh again (for the 5th time I think) and of course there was a small leaving party drinks.

3)
Back to Spain - same old - doing nada, but this time I could be a tour guide cause some friends were visiting me. So I went again through the nicest parts of the city, and also surrounding towns like Toledo (were we got lost 100 times, without a map) and Segovia and beautiful mountains of Guadarrama.

4)
After this it was time to say goodbye to Madrid. I will have all great memories about it, although professionally it was a complete failure. I discovered that independent film networks, and local filmmaking don't exist in Spain, and there is simply no work in my profession there. I tried my best and it didn't happen, sometimes you just have to accept it and move on. And so I did. I was only worried of how the hell I'm gonna ship 60kg of my film equipment back to Varsovia...

Ok, enough numbers. At this moment I'm back to Poland, repacking all day, because I'm about to set on a journey, which can be described only as the most amazing and hardest hike of my life. I'm about to walk from the shore of Atlantic the shore of Mediterranean all the time through the Pyrenees. I plan to film something there, maybe not a documentary but rather something simple, like a memory from every day of the journey. Wish me luck everyone! I won't be back before end of September so I won't be updating the blog (not many hot spots in Pirineos). Once I come back I will do some serious film work, I had enough holidays for a while. All the best to people reading this (and also to all other people in the world and extraterrestrial species out there in the universe).
