I have just produced three videos for St Catherine’s College in Eastbourne for their virtual Open Day. The College is the only Church of England secondary school in East Sussex. They chose the song which gives an unusual feel to the tour film, but the feedback has been very positive.

Electric Vehicle UK Landspeed Record attempt - Ecotricity Nemesis

Back in 2012 I helped film the video below of this car breaking the speed record for electric cars on the Yorkshire airfield where Top Gear's Richard Hammond had his near-fatal crash.
