Olswang

i am sat in a large board room, wooden varnished tables reflecting the grey sky of a london afternoon. the grey of the sky is matched by the domes and towers outside the widescreen window. lawyers from Olswangs come in, and in turn go through the minutiae of legal contracts - exclusivity - credit - contingents and so on and so on until they are just mumbling drone like clones of one another.

two crows are playing outside, swinging between our building and the next, prancing over the gargoyles heads in full awareness of their arrogance.

"the parties to the interparty agreement consent to residual payment, precedent on previous finance contracts drawn up, to be divided parri passou pro rata in relation to their equity stakes"

i sit and wonder if we are even speaking english as double dipping causes chuckles and net profits are doled out from imaginary recoupment schedules

in the middle i get phone calls - meet a composer at lunchtime - call a location at tea time - see if we can find a 16 year old who looks 14 - need one for My Sister Jodie!! Promo needs to be shot soon - october 27 - maybe - perhaps - will it?

projects in progress:

kid
yellow belly end
capoeira doc
my sister jodie promo
kodak ad

will i still be there? i enjoy the grey of the city
