Returning to Jozi

The Mandela Bridge

The Mandela Bridge

Demetrius and I got up with the sun yesterday to get some establishing shots of Newtown.

We met up with world renowned performance poet, Kgafela, as well as several members from the band Uju. We will be filming videos with all of them for the documentary and connected to discuss details of their upcoming shoots.

Kgafela took us to the spot where he wants to film his videos. It is a maze of wide open space, raw, rough details. As part of the Africa Cultural Center it is a historic space that will soon be torn down and remodeled, so we’re excited to capture it before the “upgrade.”  Tomorrow’s shoot should be a fantastic first!
