David. (reworked)

# 37

 

Backlog of strangers...so catchup time.

Met David a few weeks back and the tale to tell is too long for here, albeit, the craíc was mighty :)

 

Universal were shooting on location above Cairncastle, medievel comedy drama 'Your Highness', the base camp was in Ballygally and it was here I met David. Stephen G and myself were out scouting for the Larne Times. :) (We were trying to seek Natalie Portman and James Franco)

 

David is the unit manager/assistant unit manager for the film (think I got that right, feel free to correct me if wrong, please). Facially, he is very striking with salt and pepper colouring and a dry wit. He was a bit loathe at first for me to shoot him as he had been 'stalked' by a togger in Kazakstan whilst on location there. Let him know about the project and that I was not that stalking type, LOL, so he eventually agreed.

 

David is originally from Belfast, left when he was quite young but has only been back here sporadically since, still has his accent, but I think he said he was based more in Scotland now. He told me he had been heavily involved in the making of the George Best movie. I know there is loads more here info wise, and I believe David is quite renowned in his own sphere of media. A very interesting guy, great features, I COULD have followed him about and shot loads, but time was short. Hope you like this shot, David, if you find your way here, and thank you for your time.

 

David is my my stranger #37 in the 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at www.100strangers.com
