A friend of mine, Jac Tomlins, recently completed her “Back Garden Lockdown Project”. She suggested that I video her as part of my project. She invited us over for lunch and I met Mary, her neighbour, who helped her out with her garden renovation. I actually had a lot of footage that included more of the food we had for lunch but thought I’d focus more on the garden for this 60 second clip.

I decided to do my shoot and edit on a weekend as I’ve been having a busy week. Since the end of lockdown in Melbourne I’ve had less time for this project. I’ve had to juggle work, school, home life. I guess my priorities changed. It’s also been a bit of a struggle to come up with a new idea. I plan to venture out more with my camera. So I’ve got a fair bit of catching up to do for the final 6 days. I’m still shit at editing and colour grading.

I’m a bit behind as I was out late last night. Here’s some footage of us just hanging out with friends for dinner. Something we haven’t been able to do for over 2 months.

Luisa has been our hairdresser since Ruben was about a month old. Now she cuts his hair! And no longer cuts my hair coz I have none.
