31 July 08 (cont).
Well I just had some tu meke (choice) news from Top who has come on board the waka! Ka pai! As the whakatauki says...One alone will fall...but two will help each other climb the mountain.
31 July 08.
Tena koutou katoa. This will be a regular (or is that irregular! Ha ha ha) blog I will do whenever I have the time, to let everyone know where I am with my movie venture Te Whakapouri.
Well, I have just got back from Aucks. The weather was shocking. I went down to make contact with Aho Whakaari Maori Film and Television. I only had three hours sleep. I left at 5.30am. It was pissing down and foggy. Cars were up my ass (so I slammed on my brakes several times just to make them BACK OFF). It was a horrible journey! Anyway went to the hui. Made some good contacts...and even became a paid member! Aho Whakaari are doing positive things for Maori...check them out. Also went to TVNZ. Marae is doing a story about me (in regards to the film).
I came back (thank the good Lord) the next day. Glad to be out of rat city! I have made a contact with a Maori film maker in Windy Welly...who I will call Top! (you know who you are e hoa). She liked the script. So hopefully she will become involved.
Anyway just a short blog today. The hikoi (journey) ahead will be filled with obstacles...but I will keep my eyes on the dream and vision and that will give me the purpose and mana to carry it through.
