Video: Recent short film shoot for WWF

In the middle of last year I was asked by WWF Vietnam to film a short piece highlighting sustainable Pangasius fish farming in the Mekong Delta. I decided to bring a Canadian colleague, Sofi Langis, on-board, as having worked with her before on other documentary projects in the past, I knew she'd bring invaluable experience to the project. Together we produced a stills and film package, with the final film being a six minute long piece on the subject. It included both Vietnamese and English interviews and footage that we shot across the country from the farms and factories through to the cities, in both the UK and Vietnam. You can watch the final product below.

Fuji x100: Vietnam snaps

My Fuji x100 is a camera I've had a real love hate relationship with, it's something I enjoy using but don't use enough, it's a camera I'm constantly trying to decide when to use. I've only made the problem even more difficult by recently getting a Fuji x-Pro1. The thing is that for most snaps now I use my phone and for anything more serious I use my DSLR, so in order to use the x-series camera's I really have to put the effort in and make a conscious decision to take them out the bag. I hoping over time - with more use that will change as I get more comfortable with them. The x100 certainly proved useful on a recent trip I had in Vietnam; I was there on a filming assignment, so my 5D was usually attached to some sort of rig or strap-less which meant I increasingly went out with just my x100. On Monday I'm off to India and I've still yet to decide if I'll be taking the Fuji X-Pro1 - I'm pretty sure I know the answer. These snaps below are some of the x100 results from Vietnam.
