Warstory
The footage that eventually became Rock Pockets was intended to be a music video for Canadian band The Vertical Struts.... but then the band broke up. I was moaning about how I had shot all these images for nothing, when a smart friend said, "Why don't you just throw a voiceover on it and call it a documentary?"
