A blog covering my experiences working as a director on S106 projects. And my work with the HPX300 and P+S Technik Mini35 combination. This is where I will post my day to day life, my experiences and other work related stuff. Erhm… I guess mostly work related stuff.

Nairobi revisited

201131-Downtown-Nairobi-0

After two years I am back, two rooms down the hall in the same hotel. It’s strange to be back, with so much more knowledge and experience it doesn’t look like the same city with these eyes. I will keep you posted and put up some video soon.

We are currently staying in a house on the Ugandan side of Lake Victoria. The house is situated at the lake and the view is breathtaking, today we are enjoying a full day of! Tuesday we will depart for Nairobi, Kenia. I will keep you posted and post some more video if bandwidth allows it.

Breathtaking

During the second leg of our flight from Arusha to Bukoba, Tanzania I was sitting in the cockpit of a very small airplane. While flying over Lake Victoria to the shore I was astounded by this beautiful view.

Arusha, Tanzania

We landed on the Arusha airstrip on wednesday, at 9:00 pm local time, a hot and damp night. The next day we drove to Same district to shoot the first episode of our documentary series in Africa. The subject was water irrigation and financial management. Same has a city bond with the Dutch city Tilburg, they have been helping to develop the region for the last 23 years.

I have recently bought a set of IDX endura elite batteries and a Zacuto plate for the v-mount. I added a weight of 1,3 kg in de back and all was balanced. So I basically had a proper handheld camera in terms of weight and balance. This helps a lot in weight displacement and on one of these batteries I can shoot two full days!
