I’m on the plane to Ghana and then a few days later off to Nigeria. This comes after a week in Amsterdam, a week in Guinea and quick foray to Indiana. And, if that weren’t mind boggling already, I stop off for three hours or so in Atlanta for one meeting on the way back. Ouch.

Actually, besides being mentally exhausted and a bit bedraggled after the closing night party at IDFA, and overwhelmed by the traveling ahead, I feel pretty good. It is a bit crazy to be with the equipment for a shoot alone (three cameras!) in Nigeria, which I’m told is a hard place to work.

Right now, I just want to get to Accra without losing anything! Then, I’ll figure out how to make this film (Connected)….

Always at the start I’m a bit nervous… so many unknowns!
