"One Year Later" - Day Two Filming


Come another day, and we find ourselves around Glasgow for the second, and final day of filming.

Another early start with a hiccup as we try to get aboard the Glenlee for the first scenes of the day - soon resolved however.

Then across the city for some external and internal shots at St Andrews Square.

Finally, over to the south-side where we complete filming in a restaurant.

Wrapped about 20:30 - fond farewells and now it's over to the editing side for the film to be completed.

Aboard the 'Glenlee' Tall Ship


I had a look around the 'Glenlee' tall ship in between filming today.

There have been many improvements since I last visited, and an added bonus is that it is now free to go aboard.

Well worth a visit in my opinion.

"One Year Later" - Day One Filming


Today was the first day of filming the short film "One Year Later".

We used numerous locations throughout Glasgow.

Cast and crew worked well - and the usual blend of professionalism and good humoured banter kept us going throughout the day.

And now we look forward to another hectic schedule tomorrow.

A Stroll Around Glasgow


A trip in to Glasgow today to have the sensor cleaned on my Canon camera.

As it takes a few hours I strolled around parts of the city.

As always I find Glasgow a friendly place and easy to engage in conversation with many of the people.

Below are a few of the images from the day.
