A Short Ride
[Music video 2:49] Dedicated to a friend who had just died of cancer at the very young age of 46. Shot ‘from the hip’, without a script at the Upper Hutt Annual Spring Fair on a very cheap camcorder, it is the first footage I ever shot or edited. The music is original and taken from a suite for church organ, written many years ago.
