This current "ask ChatGPT to create a caricature" trend is actually amazing, as it's showing all the individuals who are sharing far too much information with the service and clearly relying on it for every aspect of their life.

I'll miss critical thinking and meaningful art when it's gone...

This just feels like new levels of exploitative behaviour.

Society is finished, turn it off and on again. Restart it.

Adobe know how to play the game.

I inquired about getting my sub down from £56/month, they came back with "£25 but that only unlocks if you buy AI Assistant for £5/month."

So, of course, they got their AI sign-up (which will never be used), but I'm also saving £26 a month now.

Two shoots today, one down and one to go! 🎥

I try not to work the day-job at the weekend, but I noticed the latest video I produced for the FT getting 2-3x the likes and views as normal on both IG and TikTok.

Looking forward to two more shoots next week and furthering the new video series!

Just got back from seeing 'Rental Family'.

This film is so heartfelt, tender and beautiful, I feel the urge to state as much. I look forward to a cozy rewatch, in the Autumn, with my wife.

If I had to sum it up in one word; lovely. In the most earnest sense possible.

It’s possible.

It’s doable.

It can be done.

Just gotta keep at it.

Just gotta find that one individual.

Success and failure live next door to each other, but there’s no numbers on the door.

You just knock.

I was able to actively get back into (somewhat) regular film watching in 2025, and despite being fortunate enough to be getting busy again with work/family, I hope to continue that into 2026.

I had a little "Classic Cinema" binge in the summer, which certainly impacted my final stats haha

Waking up to see that #ProjectRED is looking to be even further from the leaks. Now people are disappointed that the show is not looking at all like a “Sentai rebrand”.

This is why accountability is important. To double down on things, when reputable press says otherwise, is madness.

Thanksgiving marks the end of pushing Mighty for 2025 😮‍💨 I know things tend to start winding down now, so unlikely to get responses.

Wish I could've made more progress w/ it, though still grateful to have had some read requests, while now producing video at the Financial Times!

Hope 2026 is Mighty!

Very grateful to have received some freebies from Playmates/Character to promote for Christmas on PwrRngr.

Good thing we put the tree up today!

Excited to launch my new format today at the FT - aptly named, too!

Students often feel overwhelmed/intimated by the topics and language used within the FT. My aim is to act as the bridge that connects w/ a younger audience, making this informative content more accessible to younger readers.

Had a big meeting today, and it couldn’t have gone better.

Just been given the go-ahead to launch TWO new social channels at the FT, exciting times ahead for sure.

Let’s start shooting those shots…

Been on a classics binge the last few days. In a Lonely Place is absolutely a stand out. It was genuinely fantastic.

I think I might've watched Casablanca "wrong" too, as to me it didn't quite live up to it's expectation.

Had a very restful weekend, catching up on a lot of my watch list - like some docs, a couple movies and finishing Metalder!

Hoping for a week of positive news ahead 🤞🏻

Superman is…Super!

I *loved* the SnyderVerse, and still do, but as a DC fan, I massively enjoyed this new take, the characters explored and the world it has created.

Thank you @jamesgunn.bsky.social for setting the bar so high for the rest of the DCU! Maybe one day we’ll see the JSA 🤞🏻

It’s still absolutely wild to think that, not just one but, TWO of the individuals who are supporting characters in my script 'MIGHTY' are now actively reading my “dramatised” version of this period of their life. Shoot those shots, people!

Mighty things are certainly brewing…

I keep meaning to post here more often - so here's an update.

Two people who feature (quite prominently) *IN* this biopic script, are currently reading it. It's a strange feeling but a welcome one, for sure.

Mighty things are coming...
Working through batched notes from feedback and editors.

Going to have this script as tight and refined as possible by the end of January.
