Wait to you hear what I have been up to lately. I have been filming and having 1000s of photographs taken for the new National Honda advertising campaign - Hondamentalism!! - which has been absolutley amazing!
I have had the time of my life filming the Honda Ident TV advert which is currently being shown on the Formula One Grand Prix on ITV 1. If you are not into Formula One then you can take a look on the web site in the video section to watch the advert, click on Honda F1 Ident and turn the volume up as the music definitley sets the scene.
The Honda press advert which you can see in the images section is currently appearing in the Sunday Observer Magazines, Sunday Times magazine, Top Gear magazine etc. It has been a wild 3 months and I have met some wonderful people during all the filming and photo shoots.
Thank-you also to all my friends and sponsors who have helped me on the long filming days - especially Gill and Gareth at Drivers Dry Berthing were all the shoots have taken place, Neil Holmes and Jacqui who have helped me loads and last but not least Trevor (my partner) who has driven the media/ safety rib which has been the platform for all the camera men, photographers and directors - trying to get the best shots on the water.
There are some great photos of the filming days in the images section too you would not believe how you completley place a back drop on a 26 foot powerboat! There is still more to come as last week we filmed the Sky digital Honda film which will be available shortley and I will certainly let you know.
Believe it or not we are still racing among all this media mayhem and my fantastic team mate- Libby and I are off to the Isle of Man this week-end for round 2!! Please let it be a flat race - the boat and crew certainly need it!
