AN ORGANIC SPACE TO SHARE CREATIVE STORIES, TESTS, EXPERIMENTS, MUSINGS AND PONDERINGS.SOME PEOPLE DON’T GET RUNNING.  THEY THINK IT LOOKS LIKE PAIN.  BUT FOR MANY OF US, IT’S SO NECESSARY. THE RELEASE, THE FREEDOM, THE ENDORPHINS.  IT’S RESILIENCE FOR LIFE.  I COULDN’T RUN IN THIS YEAR’S SYDNEY HALF MARATHON SO TOOK A CAMERA AND SHOT FROM THE SIDELINES, CAPTURING THOSE MOMENTS AND EXPRESSIONS THAT TO ME AT LEAST SUM UP WHAT RUNNING IS.  I HOPE TO BE BACK OUT THERE AGAIN SOON!



AH, THE BEAUTIFUL GAME.  SOME SHOTS PITCHSIDE FROM A RECENT SYDNEY FC A LEAGUE MATCH.





SOME FILMS ASK BIG QUESTIONS. MY UPCOMING SHORT FILM, COLOURS, ASKS A QUIETER ONE; WHAT DOES IT FEEL LIKE TO REACH FOR LOVE WHEN EVERYTHING AROUND YOU IS WORKING AGAINST IT?

PRESENTED AS AN EMOTIVE NARRARTIVE, THE FILM OFFERS A POSITIVE MEDITATION AROUND THE VALUE OF HOPE, SOMETHING THE WORLD NEEDS RIGHT NOW!

SHORT FILMS DON'T HAVE THE MACHINERY OF A FEATURE BEHIND THEM. THEY EXIST BECAUSE A SMALL GROUP OF PEOPLE DECIDE THEY NEED TO TELL THIS STORY, AND THEN FIND A WAY TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

THIS PROJECT HAS ATTRACTED AN INCREDIBLE CAST AND CREW TO HELP BRING IT TO LIFE. ESSIE RANDLES AND SARO LEPEJIAN FEATURE (THANKS TO CITIZEN JANE CASTING), ALONGSIDE CINEMATOGRAPHER CAMPBELL BROWN AND PRODUCER JACK STEELE — JUST A FEW OF THE INCREDIBLE PEOPLE ON BOARD, EACH POURING THEIR LOVE AND ENERGY INTO MAKING COLOURS SOMETHING SPECIAL.

IF YOU CAN HELP SUPPORT OR PROMOTE THE PROJECT, WE'D WELCOME YOU AS PART OF THE TEAM TOO. WE'D GENUINELY LOVE AND APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT. 

EVEN A SMALL CONTRIBUTION GOES DIRECTLY INTO MAKING THIS FILM WHAT IT NEEDS TO BE. IF YOU'D LIKE A CREDIT AS EXECUTIVE PRODUCER, WE CAN DISCUSS THAT TOO, AND ANY DONATION OVER $2 IS TAX DEDUCTIBLE!

THE LINK TO OUR CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN IS HERE.  IF YOU CAN SUPPORT COLOURS FINANCIALLY THAT WOULD BE AMAZING, BUT EVEN SHARING THE LINK ON YOUR SOCIALS OR WITH FRIENDS WOULD BE HELPFUL TOO. 

HONESTLY, ANY HELP MEANS THE WORLD TO US.

THANKS, 
LESTER
