Not literally sideways; I’d imagine a fair few people do that.
I’m talking sideways as an analogy for different from the norm. For example, I haven’t slept for over 24 hours; I’m working on a music video for Lovecraft, and as it’s all shot on greenscreen, I’ve estimated it’ll need about 150 man hours, not including rendering. However, I also have three other projects on, not including planning the new Howard Be Thy Name show; so I’d like to get it done in the next 5-10 days. This is where sleeping sideways comes in.

Resumes are weird things.
For most of my 10+ years in the industry, I haven’t really needed one… Either I get work by word-of-mouth, or my previous filmstuffs speak for themselves and entice clients who stumble across me.

The lovely people at the HUDBU festival rang me up out of the blue saying:
“We hear you’re the fastest (video making) gun in the North West, and we need a 90 second promo full of spectacular visuals… by tomorrow.”
