Having spent the best part of 40 years looking through a viewfinder of a stills or video camera, sitting in front of a computer editing photos or videos, producing websites and managing content and social media accounts for organisations or individuals, it’s a very strange feeling to now say “I’m retired".

Despite no longer taking on commercial paid work, it’s virtually impossible to suddenly stop what you’ve been doing for the best part of your working life so, for the past few years I’ve been taking on work on a ‘pro-bono’ basis for church, charity or voluntary organisations. I hope that my experience, skills and equipment can now be put to good use by those who perhaps, don’t have the budget or funding to produce what they want or need for their media requirements.

A 'hack' that worked!

Filed in: Audio |Radio mics |Hack written by: Dave Farrants

YouTube and Facebook are full of timesaving, or clever hacks for DIY, cleaning and cooking etc, on the odd occasion I've tried one, it seldom seemed to work for me, until now. Just recently I picked up a bargain wireless mic system from FaceBook, I collected it in a hurry and was assured it worked. When I got it home, yes it all worked but the body pack was very 'sticky'. A search on Google said this was a known problem with some types of plastics, clicking on some of the links, the answers all said the solution was bicarb of soda mixed with a little water and just rub the 'stickyness' away - 15 minutes later the body pack looked and felt like new, so I've finally found a hack that worked for me!
