One of the joys of #production is the incredible people I work with. Over the years, I’ve built a fantastic network of talented #crew members who are not only brilliant at their jobs but also great humans.

A key insight I’ve gained? A well-fed crew is a happy crew. Enter my secret weapon: @bobbytongefood . For the past decade, he’s been my go-to #shoot caterer, impressing everyone with his totally lush, from-scratch meals created for each shoot. Check out my little Q&A with Bobby, to learn more about his journey, ballet and his heart-stopping (in a good way) pizzas.

Read the full Q & A on my website. Link in bio

Went on this recce recently, and was blown away by the view. Made me think about a convo I had the other day with a production company who were umming and ahhing between London and Manchester as a location. Don’t get me wrong, London is London, I get it. But having produced in both and many places in between, Manchester, for me (of course) is the better bet. The location is ambidextrous; the film community is world class; budgets go further and things get done quicker. Made a blog about it... link in bio

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
