Having a glorious Wednesday afternoon off work i have just finished watching a skate video recommended by Luke over at crabface.co.uk. A skateboarding video featuring the likes of John Tanner, Dan Cates and a bunch of other skaters traveling along the Trans-Siberian railway which extends from Mosco in Russia to Hong Kong in China. The trip takes them through two months of shredding some of the oldest spots in the world in little known towns and also through the busy cities of China itself.
It really is a good watch so if you get a chance take a look - needless to say i am now incredibly hyped to film and skate on our trip to Barcelona in October!
We will be leaving on October 18th for a few days in what will hopefully be a sunny skate trip and will no doubt be a banging start to the already accumulating video footage.
That's all for now!
Santiago.

First music video!
Thing are coming together nicely on the video front and this week i have finished two of my most recent projects. As you have probably seen i filmed a wedding video and upon receiving the final product the clients were very happy and very grateful with the DVD that shall now be one of the memories and treasures from their special day.
I also finished a music video for In Tyler We Trust. I was fortunate enough to be filming such a talented group of musician and wasn't quite sure what to expect from the footage being my first music video shoot. I was stoked to see the final result. Dale did and fantastic job editing the footage and his ideas gave the video a rad storyline too!

Let us know what you think, post a comment either on here or on the video's youtube page!
That's all for now! my fisheye is hopefully being returned to me within the next couple of weeks after an extremely expensive scratch repair job, which i am pleased to say was rightfully paid for by the camera insurance. So as soon as that's back we're back on filming the skate video, with maybe a trip to Barcelona in a couple of months time!

...a nice quiet Sunday
I have finally found a spare minute to write a few words. It's been pretty manic recently as i have been finishing off a few filming jobs. My first wedding is now complete and is being sent to the duplicators this week so i am really excited to show Dave and Lizzie the final copy of their wedding video. I've also been working on a short video for "The Poet", a fine dining restaurant/pub in Matfield. You can watch both of these videos on my vimeo or my website - www.pilgrimproductions.co.uk.
I have been working a lot at the butchers as a few people have been on holiday so extra ours are plentiful. I've been saving some cash for Millie's 21st and our holiday at the end of this month! The car is still not 100% so we are going to treat ourselves to a last minute deal somewhere nice and hot!
Only a few days ago we cycled around Bewl reservoir which is a 13 mile cross country track. We were shattered and a bit sore but finished the day nicely with a well deserved barbaque, the weather was actually nice that week! We decided to keep up the exercise and make it a regular occurrence so last tuesday we set off for bewl again. I didn't fancy cycling again so i ran for 5 miles while Millie cycled along side. I was absolutely destroyed after that and it was a reminder of how unfit you can become without regular exercise. We are doing a similar thing this coming Tuesday and i want to keep the running up in order to get another personal best on the TW half marathon in February. I ran it in 1h46min last time so hopefully 1h30min will be within my reach.
Interest is growing on my Everest basecamp expedition and a few people have said they would love to come, so hopefully as the time draws nearer we will have a neat little team of adventurers heading off to the Himalayas next year.
That's all for now, the skate video has been on hold whilst a scratch on my fisheye is repaired but that will hopefully be back with me next week so we can resume filming and get the ball rolling again!
