22 Oct 08

Mr. Netana-Patuawa submitted his proposal to make a documentary about P (narcotic speed). So he will find out at the end of next month if he receives the funding or not.

He will also be focusing on another documentary he has in mind, which will be called, 'A interview with Benjamin Nathan, the man who smashed the America's cup.' The man who did it is a very interesting character, who has played many different roles in life and acted many different parts...award winning poet, actor, film-maker, inmate, criminal, professional boxer, entrepreneur, pimp and te mea te mea te mea (so on and on and on). So he is committed to both projects 100%.

As for Te Whakapouri...well...Mr. Netana-Patuawa will need to form a core ropu who want to make it...to raise the cash and do it. It has fizzled out for now...ha ha ha...but not completely! Still, it will require a team to bring it to realization. The difference with the doco's is that Mr. Netana-Patuawa can make them basically on his own. All they require are good sound, lighting and composition (for the interviews). So he is going to get stuck into doing them. He will complete them by next year.

Some people take years to make doco's or write books and plays etc...not Mr. Netana-Patuawa...he is a mover and shaker!

Thought for the day...The world still has it's glittering prizes for those with the courage to seize them.
