    www.crowdfunde...
    Our latest Mini Documentary follows Andrew Forrest, a 70 year old retiree who has been surfing since the age of 44. Every time he has been surfing, he has written a journal entry, starting from little notes between shopping lists, through to ranking systems, GPS watches and criteria for what makes the perfect session.
    Jon Herbert has compiled a choice selection of the past 10 years of journal entries, and has compiled them into 'The Silver Surfer Journal' which is now in the crowd funding stage. Please do show your support for this project!

    This entire year, life finally caught up to me, and to be totally honest, a couple of months ago, I literally gave up.

    I really loved the aspect ratio for this one. I've got the Samsung Note 10 + and it filled the screen completely from left to right while having thin black bars on the top and bottom. I think I actually prefer the small top black bars as opposed to side black bars. Idk why but it just made the film look bigger and nicer :)
