Dragonfly in a Film Clip!

Valeria is a creative film maker who approached me to do a film clip for a song of mine called 'Dragonfly'. We met up at a cafe, and chatted about ideas for the clip. She has by this stage listened to the song a few times. I explained to her that I wrote Dragonfly when I was living in Paris, in my tiny little appartment on the 6th floor, staring out to 'La Tour Eiffel'. I also expressed that it was a song about the frustrations of being a travelling musician, and the highs and lows of trying to find my way.

The next time we met for a coffee, Valeria had a whole story line worked out.
"We are going to build your little appartment in Paris." she exclaimed. Since that day,Valeria
has spent hours making a model of the Eiffel Tower, posters, and designing the set for the film clip to Dragonfly. Last week was the first day of filming, so here are a few snippets below.

I even hung up a bit of washing in between takes.
